Fredrikson Shareholder Masha Yevzelman Appointed to Jewish Family Service of St. Paul Board of Directors

Fredrikson shareholder Masha Yevzelman has been appointed to the Jewish Family Services of St. Paul (JFS) Board of Directors. JFS is a nonprofit organization that provides programs and services that help people from all walks of life meet the planned and unplanned changes in their lives.

In addition to being a shareholder, Yevzelman chairs Fredrikson’s Tax Disputes & Litigation Group. She represents public and private companies, trusts, estates and high-net-worth individuals in complex tax disputes. She handles all stages of tax controversies—voluntary disclosures, audits, administrative appeals, tax court, district court and appellate litigation.

JFS serves all people regardless of race, ethnicity, creed, religion, national origin, gender, disability or sexual orientation. As an organization founded over 110 years ago to provide support to impoverished Jewish refugees fleeing Eastern Europe, JFS’ approaches are rooted in their values, beliefs and experiences related to navigating important life changes. JFS pledges to see, hear and identify changes they can make in their everyday actions, and through systemic change in their policies, practices and situations so that they are not adding to that damage. Consistent with their value of tzedakah (justice), JFS will also do their best to remedy these harms.
