We understand how challenging the meticulous nature of state and local taxes (SALT) can be for most businesses, especially those who operate across multiple states. There are over 13,000 state tax jurisdictions nationwide, which makes it important to understand how business operations can impact liability with both state and local taxes. Brown Plus provides a wide range of multistate tax services to assist businesses and individuals through the complex network of state and local taxes.
What Are The Benefits of State and Local Tax Services?
Whether your business is expanding into additional states, working with remote employees or selling products digitally, staying on top of the complexities associated with these taxes requires constant attention and significant resources. Our SALT consultant can support both for-profit and nonprofit organizations in any state specializing in various taxes, including sales and use, corporate net income and multi-state tax issues.
