I am considering moving my patent law practice to Washington state and I see that some occupations must pay a Business & Occupation (B&O) tax, even though Washington does not have a state income tax. Two questions: 1) Do patent attorneys pay the 1.5% B&O tax rate? 2) Are there any other taxes or fees levied on attorneys in Washington state?

I'm pretty certain patent attorneys will owe B&O. My wife is a non-practicing personal injury/will & probate in WA and she paid B&O.

For the rest, consult www.wsba.org ... Washington State Bar Ass'n.
