Ezra Dyckman has concentrated on the federal, state and local taxation of real estate transactions for more than 25 years, working with clients that range from families and developers to private equity funds and publicly held REITs. He has structured, from a federal, state and local tax perspective, many complex like-kind exchanges, as well as a wide variety of tax-efficient partnership transactions, including sales of partial interests, mergers, split-ups and various forms of workout transactions. He has also worked extensively on a variety of transactions involving C Corps, S Corps and REITs, including mergers, spinoffs, recapitalization, purchases and liquidations. He coauthors a bimonthly column on Real Estate Taxation in the New York Law Journal.

He received a B.A., magna cum laude, from Yeshiva University and his J.D. from Columbia University Law School, where he was a James Kent Scholar.
