00:22
issues of taxes that they have to
00:24
minimize or avoid
00:26
whether it’s punitive or just meant as a
00:28

00:30
of specialties that i have that’s kind
00:31
of unique is what’s called state local

Sacramento, CA lawyer Cameron L. Hess talks about the type of tax services his firm provides. He points out that while the firm is not a CPA firm, its tax services are extremely broad in scope. The team handles a wide range of tax-related matters, from tax planning to compliance, covering virtually any issue that involves taxation. Even nonprofit organizations, he notes, face tax concerns that require careful planning to minimize or avoid unnecessary liabilities—whether those taxes are punitive or simply part of operating obligations.
One of his particular areas of expertise is state and local tax controversy, which involves handling property taxes, city business license taxes, and sales taxes. He frequently assists clients undergoing audits or examinations and advises those conducting business across multiple states on whether specific transactions are subject to sales tax. He also deals with complex topics such as unitary taxation, providing both strategic planning and administrative advocacy.
His work often includes engaging directly with local tax authorities or departments of revenue to resolve issues, representing clients in administrative appeals, and in some cases, appearing before formal bodies such as the U.S. Tax Court or the California Office of Tax Appeals.
He adds that even in estate planning, tax considerations are critical. Clients often face strategic choices—whether to focus on minimizing income taxes or estate taxes—and he helps guide them through that process to achieve the most effective and sustainable results.
