Why a specialized tax lawyer
IRS personnel do not resolve cases favorably for taxpayers to be nice. They do so when forced to, out of concern over the hazards of potential litigation against the taxpayer and his tax attorney. Specialized tax training plus litigation experience raises that hazard for the government.
A CPA who prepared the return, especially under Circular 230 pressure, often cannot finish an aggressive audit or collection fight. That is when a tax litigator is needed. Read the resume for education, experience, reported cases, and bar memberships.
Do you have an “impossible” tax law problem?
Ask any judge or lawyer you trust whether they would feel comfortable referring you. Referrals are how most clients come. Call any time: 918-582-9200.
