We also have extensive experience in negotiating and structuring health and hospital system joint ventures with other exempt or taxable entities and the use of taxable subsidiaries, or disregarded entities in the tax exemption context, as well as a variety of subsidiary and related entity structures for nonprofits. Our team also provides industry specific tax counseling and services including preparation and filing of tax exemption applications and registrations and filing of tax returns for tax exempt entities.

Of specific concern to large multi-institutional health and hospital systems, our team also has a successful track record of representing non-profit organizations related to obtaining property tax exemption and challenging property tax assessments.
