Don Lan’s practice focuses on high end estate planning, charitable planning, transactions for closely held businesses (including the formation of entities and succession planning), as well as handling federal tax controversies and tax litigation. Don has handled tax cases in all federal forums (US District Court, US Tax Court, US Court of Federal Claims, and US Bankruptcy Court), and tried many, but he is proud to say his cases rarely go to trial. Don’s approach to tax controversies is to explore resolution at the earliest possible time. This saves the client significant legal fees, as well as prolonged emotional stress. If a case needs to be tried, however, Don will oblige. After all, he has clients who would rather pay him instead of the IRS.
