Planning, Compliance, and Risk Management for Individuals & Businesses
Taxation is one of the most complex and ever-changing aspects of financial management, affecting both businesses and individuals at every stage of growth and wealth planning. Whether structuring a business, handling estate tax concerns, or optimizing tax incentives, smart legal strategies help minimize liabilities and protect financial stability.
At Danna McKitrick, our tax and accounting attorneys provide proactive, tailored legal counsel to help clients navigate tax obligations, reduce risks, and plan for the future. We assist with business tax strategies, estate and wealth preservation, tax-efficient financing, and property tax appeals, ensuring that our clients remain compliant while maximizing financial opportunities.
Business Tax Strategy & Compliance
For business owners, tax obligations extend beyond annual filings — they impact daily operations, long-term planning, and major financial decisions. Choosing the right business structure and implementing effective tax strategies can significantly affect profitability and regulatory compliance.
We assist businesses with:
- Business structure selection (LLCs, S-Corps, C-Corps, partnerships) to optimize tax efficiency
- Strategic tax planning to minimize liabilities while remaining compliant with federal and state tax laws
- Tax considerations in business sales and acquisitions, ensuring tax-efficient transactions
- Tax-incentivized financing, helping businesses leverage available tax credits and deductions
- Property tax appeals to challenge unfair assessments and reduce tax burdens
By developing comprehensive tax strategies, businesses can increase financial flexibility and reduce unnecessary costs.
Property Tax Appeals & Tax Dispute Resolution
For businesses, property taxes represent a significant operational expense. Inaccurate assessments can lead to excessive taxation, impacting your bottom line. Our firm specializes in:
- Commercial Property Tax Appeals: Challenging overassessed commercial property valuations to ensure fair taxation.
- Industrial Property Tax Appeals: Representing manufacturing and industrial clients in disputes over property tax assessments.
- Agricultural Property Tax Appeals: Assisting agribusinesses in securing accurate property valuations that reflect true market values.

Estate and Tax Planning for Individuals & Families
Estate planning isn’t just about distributing assets. It’s about ensuring financial security for future generations while minimizing tax liabilities. Without careful planning, estate taxes can erode wealth, leaving heirs with unnecessary financial burdens.
Our estate tax and wealth planning services include:
- Estate tax planning to reduce or eliminate federal and state estate tax exposure

- Special needs planning, structuring financial arrangements that protect benefits eligibility
