Jessica Jane Ledingham

I worked six years in the tax industry, representing all types of taxpayers from individuals and small business owners to Fortune 500 companies.
I clerked for the Honorable Ronald Lee Buch of the U.S. Tax Court.

Since my time at the Tax Court, I honed my skills in the various areas of the legal profession. I previously worked in the Washington, DC law offices of Miller & Chevalier as well as Chamberlain Hrdlicka and more recently Willkie Farr. I represented individuals, corporations, and partnerships at all stages of an IRS examination, at appeals, and Tax Court in connection with federal income tax reporting and charitable contribution deductions.

Prior to my time in private practice, I worked in the international corporate tax group at PricewaterhouseCoopers in New York, NY, where I gained insight into tax law from the compliance perspective. I partnered with corporate tax planning and operations teams to assist in the compliance of large corporate taxpayers and defense of their positions on audit.

I received her Tax LL.M. (Master of Laws) from the Georgetown University Law Center on a merit scholarship. During that time, I spent a semester as a research fellow at the Council on State Taxation and another semester as a student extern at Pillsbury. I received my J.D. from the University of Nebraska College of Law with distinction. I received my B.A. in Economics from the University of Colorado-Denver with University honors.

When I am not working, me and my husband are constantly on the go. Due to his time in the U.S. Marine Corps, we volunteer at various veteran organizations in addition to Experience Camp, a camp for children that have lost a parent or guardian. For fun they practice photography and go kayaking.
