New Law Firm Focuses on Fair Tax Advice

"Jarrett S. Kalish, once a judge in New York City's tax court and adviser to the city’s finance department, has opened Kalish Law LLC. The company promises a mix of tax advice and dispute solutions for businesses and public groups. Kalish’s background in government, court work, and big law firms shapes the firm’s philosophy. He believes that careful study of tax rules—combined with real‑world insight—can help companies grow while keeping the system trustworthy. The firm sees room for growth as tax insurance, litigation financing and activist investors change how tax problems are handled. Kalish says the best outcomes happen when the government and taxpayers understand each other’s point of view.Clients get guidance that recognizes tax rules often allow some flexibility. That flexibility works best when clients stay disciplined, credible and understand how officials actually enforce the law. This is especially true in New York City’s complex tax landscape, where rules like the Unincorporated Business Tax affect private equity, hedge funds and real estate. Kalish Law LLC also offers services to governments, public bodies and nonprofits. They help draft laws, analyze policies and advise on building clear, lasting tax rules. The firm keeps a strong public‑service element. A good portion of its work is pro bono or policy‑focused, aiming to make tax rules fairer and more transparent. Kalish believes solid institutions, clear laws and consistent enforcement create a healthy business world. "
