Scott Breen, an attorney with the East Lansing firm of Willingham and Coté, P.C., has received a Master of Laws (LL.M.) degree in taxation from WMU-Cooley Law School.
The LL.M. program includes a specialized curriculum in the areas of corporate and partnership taxation, mergers and acquisitions, state and local taxation, nonprofit organizations, tax litigation, real estate taxation, and various other specialized areas. This degree is a complement to Breen’s business and real estate practice, allowing him to further his ability to provide tax efficient planning techniques and solve complex tax issues on behalf of individuals and businesses, and support the needs of businesses with the formation of the proper type of entity, merger/acquisitions, contract negotiations/drafting, and sale and dissolution of a business.
A magna cum laude graduate of Michigan State University of College of Law, Breen is treasurer on the firm’s board of directors, chair of the Business and Corporate and Real Estate practice groups, and a member of the Hospitality and Alcohol Law practice group.
