The Ayar Law Group has established the Ayar Law Group Scholarship for Tax Excellence to be awarded to two University of Detroit Mercy School of Law students annually for five years.
Venar Ayar, principal and founding tax attorney for Ayar Law group, said the scholarship is aimed at providing financial support to law students pursuing a career in tax law who demonstrate a commitment by excelling academically at Detroit Mercy Law.
The $25,000 gift will be disbursed annually, $5,000 per year over five years, in increments of $2,500 to two UDM tax law students who achieve the highest grade in upper level tax courses.
“I have a great deal of respect for the University of Detroit Mercy and their commitment to the legal community, both academically and professionally,” said Ayar. “The majority of the attorneys I’ve hired at the firm are graduates of the school of aw at Detroit Mercy. I really wanted to give back to the university and help students in the field of tax law ease the financial burden of law school. At the end of five years, this scholarship will have helped 10 students pursue their dream of becoming a lawyer.”
Ayar concentrates his legal practice on IRS and Michigan tax resolution for both businesses and individuals.
He earned his law degree at the University of San Diego (USD) School of Law. After graduation, he continued his legal education at USD and earned an LLM degree, a master of law in taxation.
Born and raised in metropolitan Detroit, Ayar returned to his home state to open a tax problem resolution practice.
Prior to opening his Michigan practice, he was a tax attorney at RJS Law in southern California and worked for several years in metro Detroit as a solo tax law practitioner.
In addition to the scholarship, Ayar plans to work with the university to help mentor students pursuing a degree and career in tax law.
