Remote tax attorneys advise individuals and businesses on the tax consequences of their decisions — structuring transactions, navigating federal and state tax rules, handling planning and controversy, and ensuring compliance. As a technical, research- and advice-driven practice, tax law adapts naturally to remote work.
Remote tax roles span law firms, advisory teams, and in-house departments, covering corporate, partnership, international, and individual tax, as well as transactional tax support and disputes with tax authorities. Strong candidates combine deep knowledge of the tax code with clear explanations of complex rules; an LL.M. in Taxation is often valued. Most postings require a JD and active bar admission. The roles below are updated daily and include only positions employers advertised as remote.
Yes — every role posted on this site was advertised as remote by the employer. That's our single inclusion criterion: if a position wasn't presented as remote, it doesn't get listed, so every tax attorney role here is a remote-advertised one. Please note that while we do our best to keep listings accurate, employers occasionally make mistakes in their own postings, so in rare cases a role advertised as remote may turn out not to be — we always recommend confirming the arrangement directly with the employer before you apply.
Tax attorneys advise on the tax treatment of transactions and structures, plan to minimize tax legally, prepare opinions and memos, handle audits and disputes with the IRS or state authorities, and counsel on compliance. The focus ranges from corporate and international tax to individual planning depending on the role.
Not always required, but a Tax LL.M. is commonly preferred and can be a meaningful advantage, especially for firm and specialized roles. Strong tax experience can substitute in many cases; check each listing for specifics.
Compensation varies by experience and setting, but remote tax attorney roles in the US commonly range from around $120,000 to $230,000+ in base salary, often with bonus, with specialized and senior roles at the higher end. Individual postings list compensation where the employer provides it.
Tax planning is proactive — structuring transactions and affairs to manage tax before the fact. Tax controversy is reactive — representing clients in audits, appeals, and disputes with tax authorities. Some attorneys do both; listings usually indicate the focus.
Yes — tax is highly technical and advisory, built on research, drafting, and consultation, which translates well to remote work. Many firms and companies offer tax roles remotely for that reason.
