With 25 years of experience in tax services, Jackson’s background includes 15 years as a partner with a Big Four firm where he was responsible for the delivery of SALT services for clients in the Southwest region of their portfolio to include privately owned businesses as well as multinational public companies. He is highly skilled in helping clients understand the state and local tax impact of their business operations including mergers and acquisitions, entity selection and business reorganizations.
“We have an exceptional SALT team within our firm that is only enhanced by David’s experience,” said National Practice Leader of Tax Services, Sean Muller. “His strong reputation and understanding of the most relevant state and local tax issues adds tremendous value to our clients, as this is an area impacting most businesses.”

In addition, he often serves as a speaker on key tax issues and has presented for the Texas Tax Executives Institute.
“David’s background with complex tax requirements, along with his high quality client service in a variety of industries is increasingly important in today’s rapidly changing business environment. Weaver is fortunate to have someone with his skills on our team as we continue to expand our SALT practice,” said Partner-in-Charge of State and Local Tax Services, Shane Stewart.
