*IRS hires new Associate Chief Counsel to focus on partnerships and other passthrough entities*
WASHINGTON — The Internal Revenue Service today announced the selection of the first Associate Chief Counsel for the newly created Passthroughs, Trusts and Estates office that will focus exclusively on partnerships, S corporations, trusts and estates. Staffing for this office will be drawn from the current Passthroughs and Special Industries office. The new Associate Chief Counsel, Jeffrey Erickson, is expected to join the IRS in January 2025. Most recently, he served as a Principal in Ernst & Young’s National Tax Passthroughs Transaction Group.* *
Holly Porter will be the Associate Chief Counsel for the Energy, Credits, and Excise Tax office, which also will be drawn from the current Passthroughs and Special Industries office.
“We are excited that Jeff will be returning to the IRS to lead Chief Counsel’s work in this priority area,” said IRS Chief Counsel Margie Rollinson. “He will bring an extensive background in tax law that encompasses over 30 years of experience in both the federal government and the private sector.”
As the Associate Chief Counsel for Passthroughs, Trusts and Estates, Erickson will coordinate and direct the activities of the office and oversee legal advisory services that support the uniform interpretation, application, enforcement and litigation of tax laws involving partnerships, S corporations, trusts and estates.
Erickson began his tax career in 1991 as an Attorney Advisor at the IRS’s Office of Chief Counsel in Passthroughs and Special Industries and left the IRS in 1999 as an Assistant Branch Chief. Additionally, Erickson has served as an Adjunct Professor at the Georgetown University Law Center, where he co-taught Taxation of Partnerships for LL.M. and J.D. students and has authored articles for inclusion in tax publications.
