Our experience and capabilities in federal, state and local taxation allows us to be highly efficient in our representation of clients.

When a dispute arises, we defend of our clients’ tax positions during the audit, before administrative agencies, the Appeals Office at the Internal Revenue Service and in litigation before the tax courts. In many cases, we are able to obtain a successful resolution of the dispute at the audit or administrative agency level through interaction and negotiations with the auditor or other tax officials. When a fair resolution is not reached at the administrative level, we have litigated state and local tax matters at state and federal tax courts.
