Eva is a partner in the private client and tax team.
She focuses on personal and business tax planning for high net worth individuals and their closely-held companies, and advises clients on a wide range of US and international tax issues, including matters such as pre-immigration planning and expatriations, planning with trusts, real estate transactions, withholding tax, information reporting, tax return filing obligations, and related areas. She is also heavily involved in advising clients on voluntary disclosure matters and streamlined filing programs and also has experience with audits and examinations of individuals.
Me in a minute
I wanted to be either an architect or an author
Growing up, I wanted to be either an architect or an author, but being a somewhat cautious person by nature, I ended up practicing law. I now spend most of my time advising high net worth individuals on pre-immigration planning, the US tax aspects of real estate investment and structures, estate planning, US tax compliance, and expatriations from the US. As part of the process, I have the opportunity to plan structures and often reduce the advice to writing - not that far from where I originally wanted to be.
I also practice my language skills and endeavor to learn new languages so that I can converse with my international clients in their own language as much as possible.
