2020 Year-End Tax Planning for Law Firms and AttorneysWithum
Tax planning can be a difficult strategic process; this tax planning season is further complicated by the COVID-19 pandemic as well as the uncertainties surrounding the Presidential Election. This session will shed light on a number of significant considerations regarding NJ BAIT, nexus issues related to remote working, and PPP loan forgiveness as it relates to general high net worth planning.
2021 Year End Tax Planning for Law Firms and AttorneysWithum
2021 has ushered in a return to what we can consider our new normal for the foreseeable future. The impact of COVID-19 on law firms persists in the form of hybrid work environments as managing partners are tasked with creating return-to-work policies with flexible remote work options.
With remote work comes complicated nexus implications that law firms must navigate. Meanwhile, federal and state tax laws, particularly Pass-Through Entity Taxes (PTET), continue to impact law firms in a unique way.
Withum and Giordano Halleran & Ciesla teamed up with PWC NJ to present Financial and Legal Considerations for individuals and businesses amidst COVID-19.
In this webinar, CARES Act Funding and Single Audit Update, Withum’s Devin Desmond and Jennifer Stewart discuss recent developments related to Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act funding in addition to revisions to Uniform Guidance and Single Audit implications. Viewers are able to identify recent developments related to CARES Act funding and better understand revisions to Uniform Guidance and impact on Single Audits.
Landlords & tenants managing through distressWithum
The COVID-19 pandemic has been, for better or worse, a transformative time for businesses undergoing disruption to everyday operations. As trends in office space and locations shift on a large scale, tenants are seeking ways to circumvent existing leases. The demand for rent concessions grows as tenants consider their options in the face of losses and even bankruptcy.
Tenant distress puts a strain on landlords. Whether strict in their terms or accommodating of tenants’ needs, landlords should be well-versed in their protections under the law. Meanwhile, shortfalls in rent payments and obstacles with reopening guidelines pose landlords with struggles of their own.
What can landlords and tenants alike do in the face of these obstacles as the pandemic and economic downturn continue? What trends and innovations can be adopted to help businesses succeed in the face of distress? What is predicted to come next?
Join William Kinney, member of Withum’s Real Estate Services Team; Donald Clarke, Bankruptcy and Restructuring Attorney at Wasserman, Jurista & Stolz; and Ken DeGraw, leader of Withum’s Financial Distress and Recovery Services Team, for this multifaceted discussion.

In order to transition effectively to the sweeping new revenue recognition standard (ASU 2014-09), you need a sufficient command of the nuances embedded in our present accounting guidance on revenue recognition. This webinar will address these issues and more.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Loan Forgiveness Reductions
Reduction based on headcount reduction
Multiply total eligible expenses paid during 8-week period after loan is made (covered period) by the following
fraction:
• Average number of FTEs per month during 8-week period after the loan is made, divided by
• At the election of borrower:
Average number of FTEs per month during 2/15/19 to 6/30/19, or
Average number of FTEs per month during 1/1/20 to 2/29/20
Reduction based on wage reduction
Reduction amount per employee is equal to:
• the amount by which total salary and wages paid during the covered period is less than 25% of total wages paid during
most recent full quarter before the covered period
Although unclear, calculation of the reduction applies only to employees making less than $100K/year
Can restore headcount and wages by 6/30/2020 to account for any reductions made between 2/15/2020
and 4/26/2020
FAQ #40 (May 3, 2020)– An IFR will be issued to exclude from the reductions any laid-off EE who rejects a
written offer of employment at a comparable wage, and the ER documents the rejection
• Example: 100 EEs – 2 laid off and reject offer, and 2 others hired; is the FTE count effectively 102? What about furloughed EEs?

Following several public and high-profile companies receiving PPP loans, the SBA now
plans to review all loans in excess of $2 million, and others as needed. Per a statement
issued April 28 by U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin and Small Business
Administrator Jovita Carranza:
“We have noted the large number of companies that have appropriately reevaluated
their need for PPP loans and promptly repaid loan funds in response to SBA guidance
reminding all borrowers of an important certification required to obtain a PPP loan. To
further ensure PPP loans are limited to eligible borrowers, the SBA has decided, in
consultation with the Department of the Treasury, that it will review all loans in excess
of $2 million, in addition to other loans as appropriate, following the lender’s
submission of the borrower’s loan forgiveness application. Regulatory guidance
implementing this procedure will be forthcoming.”
Businesses "owned by large companies [private and public] with adequate sources of
liquidity to support the business’s ongoing operations" can be eligible, but, like all
borrowers, must certify in good faith that their PPP loan request is necessary to
support ongoing operations of the borrower. Borrowers must make this certification in
good faith, taking into account their current business activity and their ability to
access other sources of liquidity sufficient to support their ongoing operations in a
manner that is not significantly detrimental to the business.
"Lenders may rely on a borrower’s certification regarding the necessity of the loan
request. Any borrower that applied for a PPP loan prior to the issuance of this
guidance and repays the loan in full by May 7, 2020, will be deemed by SBA to have
made the required certification in good faith."
