DLA Piper LLP (US)

The team at DLA Piper LLP (US) is formed of tax advisors and economists who lend their expertise to assist a broad client roster consisting of key players in industries such as media, technology, and finance. The team advises on cross-border integrations, mergers, and acquisitions for start-ups and multinationals alike, and facilitates the international aspects of such restructurings including transfer pricing issues and foreign tax credits, providing comprehensive support across both transactions and planning-based tax matters. The practice is jointly led by Seattle-based tax practice head Alison Maxwell, who handles international integrations and acquisition transactions, and international tax and transfer pricing sub-practice lead Maruti Narayan  in New York, who led the team on the Warner Brothers Discovery $43bn restructuring following AT&T’s spinoff of WarnerMedia and Warner Brothers Discovery. Tuan Ngo is well-regarded for his comprehensive advisory service encompassing corporate international tax and operational structuring, as well as tax treaty issues. Reza Nader joined the team from Baker McKenzie LLP in January 2026.
