Partner

Adam Schurle counsels clients on a wide variety of federal and state tax matters, including issues relating to entity formation; corporate mergers and acquisitions; transactions involving partnerships, S corporations, limited liability companies, and other pass-through entities; and tax aspects of compensation arrangements. He is a Milwaukee-based partner in Foley’s Tax Practice Group.

A significant portion of Adam’s practice is focused on tax advice for developers and financial institutions in wind, solar, hydroelectric, biomass, and other renewable energy finance transactions. He helps these clients qualify for federal, state, and local tax incentives and implement transaction structures that maximize the value of those incentives. Adam also frequently advises clients with respect to tax incentives related to energy transition projects and investments, including Section 45Q carbon capture and sequestration credits.
