We have a Delaware C-corporation facing an issue with the Delaware Division of Corporations regarding franchise taxes.

Required Expertise: • Proven specialization in Delaware corporate law and franchise tax disputes. • Successful track record resolving similar administrative or tax disputes directly with the Delaware Division of Corporations. • Excellent communication and negotiation skills. Deliverables: • Immediate legal strategy and action plan. • Successful filing and management of negotiations or appeals. • Restoration of the company’s status to good standing with Delaware.
