I’m a m&a tax associate and have found my LLM helpful. Are you already working in tax? I ask because some firms value a tax LLM much more than others (usually comes down to whether the partners themselves have gotten one or not). At my prior firm, many tax associates did not have the LLM but took a lot of tax classes in their JD.
Yes, I’m already working in tax with an LLM. My firm values the degree highly, thankfully. It definitely got me this job.
It is absolutely helpful in M&A. Transactional work essentially boils down to risk and tax mitigation. Tax can kill a deal before it even starts.
I have a Tax LLM and I do general corporate and M&A. Def helpful. Choice of entity analysis or how to structure a deal boils down to tax. Big firms you’ll be an expert on M&A just looking at tax parts of the deal, smaller firms you can do the actual deal side and the tax side.
You said you do general corporate and (general?) M&A. What percentage of your practice is tax focussed ? How exactly do you use your LLM in your current role?
I do M&A, general tax and tax credit deals…
