The Team

National Federal Tax Services (NFTS) is a national practice within Deloitte Tax LLP made up of multiple tax service offerings, including Transaction & Integration Services (T&IS). The T&IS practice advises businesses and their investors on tax matters associated with acquisitions, integration, divestitures, joint ventures, bankruptcy emergence, public equity offerings, and legal entity realignment. Within this team, a segment of the group is focused on Transaction Cost Recovery Services (TCRS). This subgroup advises clients undergoing corporate life changes such as mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, bankruptcies, or other capital transactions with several valuable tax planning opportunities that address the potential deductibility and amortization of a portion of the transaction-related costs paid to third-party advisors (i.e., investment bankers, attorneys, accountants, and other consultants). The TCRS team's refined and streamlined approach helps clients to focus on a wide variety of applications including:

• Assisting with the analysis of significant fees paid to investment bankers, legal, accounting, and consulting advisors to assess whether there are amounts not required to be capitalized under Reg. § 1.263(a)-5 that can be recovered through current deductions or amortization.

• Determining the proper legal entity to take the transaction costs into account for tax purposes.

• Providing comprehensive documentation to support the timing and nature of the services rendered by third-party advisors.
