Whether you're at a pre-IPO startup or a public tech giant, your equity deserves specialized attention.

RSU Tax Planning

Restricted Stock Units are taxed as ordinary income at vesting — but that doesn't mean there's nothing you can do. We help you optimize withholding elections, time supplemental income, maximize pre-tax deductions, and plan around large vesting events to minimize your effective tax rate.
