Rather than saying “no,” Peter presents clients with creative options that will allow their plans to proceed. Given the broad reach of the tax laws, nearly all types of Tucker Ellis business clients call on Peter for his advice. He commonly serves publicly traded corporations, privately held businesses and their owners, investment funds, financial institutions, governmental entities issuing municipal bonds, high net worth individuals, non-profit organizations, and healthcare providers.
