Judith K. Crosby

Of Counsel

Judith's practice focuses on tax law, with particular expertise in affordable housing, partnership law, nonprofit law and equity financing of partnerships and limited liability companies. She has represented investors, syndicators and developers and provided tax structuring advice in hundreds of tax credit transactions, including mixed-income projects, mixed-use projects, assisted living projects, single-room occupancy projects for homeless individuals, mixed-finance public housing and HOPE VI projects, projects which are financed by a combination of Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (federal and state) and Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits (federal and state) and projects financed by the New Markets Tax Credit. Judith also provides general partnership and corporate tax advice on a range of issues, including choice of entity, tax-exempt entity formation and maintenance, tax-deferred exchanges of real estate and state tax.

Judith is an active member of the ABA Forum for Affordable Housing and Community Development, where she co-chaired the Forum's bi-annual conference held in Newport, RI, in October 2009, co-chaired the low-income housing tax credit committee from 2008 through 2010, is currently serving on the governing committee, and was conference co-chair for the annual conference held in Washington, D.C. in May 2011. 

Judith also is a proud supporter of the Arthritis Foundation. She currently serves as a member of the board of directors for the Arthritis Foundation New England Region, is a member of the Boston leadership council, serves on the 2015 Boston Walk to Cure Arthritis planning committee, and acts as captain of the Bibbidi Bobbidi Beths (which to date has raised over $25,000 to fund a cure for arthritis and was the top fundraising team in 2014 for the entire New England region).
