The firm's unique qualifications include two attorneys who are also CPAs, five attorneys holding advanced law degrees in Taxation, one former IRS Agent (Walter J. Timby III), and one current Adjunct Professor in Villanova's Graduate Tax Program. This exceptional concentration of tax expertise, combined with over a century of combined legal experience, positions the firm to handle the most complex business, estate, and tax matters with both theoretical knowledge and practical insight.
