Norton Rose Fulbright

Mehr Information
Norton Rose Fulbright US LLP works as part of the firm’s global network to provide comprehensive tax support on an array of complex, multijurisdictional matters. The group covers litigation and administrative proceedings at the federal and SALT level, with expertise in advanced pricing agreements and transfer pricing as well as in criminal tax matters. Robert Morris, who is based in Houston, co-leads the department alongside William Cavanagh in New York. Morris covers disputes at both the federal and state level, while Cavanagh, whose practice is primarily non-contentious, increasingly acts on tax matters that are connected to bankruptcy.
