Individuals and businesses facing complicated tax problems call me for help because they can expect prompt, personal attention, a careful assessment of the situation, and plain talk about options that will be cost effective and sensible. I routinely assist individuals and businesses dealing with the IRS or State taxing authorities in almost any situation including audits, an administrative or judicial appeal after an audit, or when collection activities are threatened or underway.   I have over 30 years of experience, five years with the U.S. Department of Justice representing the Internal Revenue Service and over 25 years in private practice representing individual and business clients.
