Nicole Bodoh

I practice in the areas of taxation, ERISA and employer-provided benefit plans, mergers and acquisitions and assist clients with a variety of regulatory and transactional matters.  My experience includes review and analysis of the tax consequences of certain transactions, as well as preparation of executive compensation plans and correction of benefit plan compliance issues.  I regularly assist with stock and asset purchases, conversions, redomestications, recapitalizations and tax-free reorganizations. My experience handling these types of matters has made me a vital business advisor for clients throughout New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Vermont.

I represent a diverse group of clients including financial institutions, regional and national companies, tax-exempt entities and local businesses.  With over fifteen years of experience, I have identified and resolved a multitude of complex issues that arise when clients grow and sell their businesses, extend or borrow credit, and enter into joint venture transactions.  My unique background in law, taxation, and writing lends itself to drafting and negotiating many types of contracts, equity compensation plans, and closing documents.  I ensure that my clients mitigate and avoid risk associated with business transactions, that documentation precisely reflects the agreed terms, and that deals are closed and matters resolved as quickly and efficiently as possible.   

I am deeply interested in the history of my community and an advocate for preservation of our state’s historic structures.  As a member of the New Hampshire Historical Society, the Music Hall, and Strawbery Banke, I enjoy attending events that strengthen our heritage.  I also strive to give back to the community as a member of various charitable organizations.
