Tax Law & IRS Defense
This is where being represented by a CPA *and* an attorney changes everything. Most tax counsel know the law; we also speak the language of the financial statements, returns, and workpapers the IRS is actually looking at. We defend audits and appeals, resolve liens, levies, and unfiled years, and negotiate settlements directly with the IRS and the Texas Comptroller — so you don't have to. The result is a defense built on both the numbers and the law, aimed at the smallest defensible liability and the fastest path to closing your file.
What we handle
- IRS & state audit representation
- Unfiled and back returns
- Offers in compromise & installment agreements
- Tax liens, levies & penalty abatement
- U.S. Tax Court litigation
Frequently asked questions
What should I bring to a tax consultation?
Bring any IRS or state notices you've received, your two or three most recent returns, and a rough picture of your income, assets, and outstanding balances. Even if your records are incomplete, come anyway — reconstructing the numbers is part of what we do.
Can you help if I have unfiled returns from multiple years?
Yes — this is one of the most common situations we handle. We bring your filings current, calculate the real liability (often lower than the IRS's substitute estimates), and negotiate to minimize penalties and interest before enforcement escalates.
