Our company faced the daunting task of relocating our corporate headquarters to Charlotte, a process fraught with intricate legal and tax implications. We engaged Billy Moore of Moore & Van Allen based on his formidable reputation. With over four decades of experience, including his recognized work in tax law and history with Fortune 500 relocations, he was the clear choice. Billy’s guidance was masterful.
