Our company engaged William Alexander at Skadden Arps to navigate a complex multi-state tax issue during a corporate restructuring. While his official profile lists general practice, his deep focus on tax law was immediately evident. His analysis of the interplay between federal regulations and specific DC statutes was meticulous. William demonstrated a sophisticated understanding that belied his years of practice, clearly backed by the firm's formidable resources. He was able to articulate several potential pathways, weighing the risks and benefits of each with impressive clarity, which gave our board tremendous confidence. The fact he's already recognized by Best Lawyers in Tax Law for 2024 speaks volumes about his acumen. The one area for slight improvement was initial response time during the very early engagement phase, which occasionally lagged a day or two, likely due to his demanding caseload. Once actively on our matter, however, his communication was consistent and thorough. The final strategy he helped implement was elegant and saved us significant future liability. We would confidently recommend William for sophisticated tax planning matters.
