Charlotte is one of a kind, phenomenal and in our eyes the best tax lawyer. She took care of back to back tax preparer audits. She stayed calm and collected during difficult times with the IRS agents. Charlotte gave us the confidence we needed to overcome the obstacles and never let us feel like we were alone. Pressure was a catalyst to her great work. We cannot thank her enough. Thank you for everything Charlotte. Truly appreciate your hard work and dedication. Best wishes always to you and your family. God Bless you all. Sincerely, Jay

Before I contacted Charlotte, I had some trust issues when it came to lawyers due to some shady ones I met to in the past. She puts alot of effort in your case and doesn't just try to squeeze you for every dime she can. In my case, I ended up owing IRS just under $30k in back taxes. But yet, even after paying her fees, she still managed save me quite a bit of money. She is definitely a lawyer I would recommend to anyone.

I hired Sandy to represent me during my divorce. I found him to be honest, trustworthy, and extremely knowledgeable with the law. He knew exactly what to say, how to say it, and more importantly when to say it. His skill level reflected that not only is he is extremely passionate about what he does, but he takes his job in protecting his client's interests very seriously. I am certainly glad that Sandy Solomon was on MY side.

My brother was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer, he did not have insurance or a will. I needed legal help quickly but did not have an established relationship in the area as I’m from out of state. I found Joe online and was impressed with his reviews. I emailed Joe 4:30 pm on a Thursday with my brothers situation including the need for urgency, Joe called me within a hour. I was not a wreck but wobbling, Joe’s beside manner was comforting as much as his quick response. Joe was out of town at a conference but he procured the information he needed from me , consulted with our family attorney back home and unbelievably produced a will, living will, Power of Attorney, Healthcare Surrogate and Lady Bird Deed by 3:30 the next day. Joe obviously bent over backwards while at the conference to pull this off for a complete stranger with a small chance of repeat business. I enjoy attorney jokes as much as the next guy, but from now on I will always preface a joke with “I’m not talking about Joe here…” so Joe is my hero and I cannot tell you how much pressure he took off my plate trying to protect my brother and niece in a dire time if need. Ine last testament, I have never written a review in my life , good or bad … maybe that tells the whole story !

Joe was hired to assist my family with probate and trust work after the unexpected death of my brother. It was complicated due to paperwork that had not been updated , a divorce, a special needs trust for my nephews that had been poorly written by a different attorney, questions of dollars owed to the estate etc etc. Joe organized the family members involved, arranged meetings and taught us the law and what to expect. He let us know what was needed from us and very patiently listened to our concerns. All emails were answered in a timely fashion and all work with the courts, banks and other attorneys involved was taken care of professionally and as expediently as possible. The probate process takes time but I always felt connected to where we were in the process. I would highly recommend Mr Percopo for legal work in his area of expertise.

I have been a client of Larry Bishins for years and he has always been friendly, professional, and competent. We went toe to toe with the IRS and following Larry's counsel and direction, we won. The IRS agent shared with me later that had I not had Larry Bishins as my attorney, I would have lost my case costing me thousands of dollars in taxes and interest. When I inquired as to what the agent meant, he stated that Bishins knows more about the IRS code than most of the agents and the agents usually try to resolve the issue without court action.

My career in estate planning law was enhanced greatly by having met Thom and I attended as many of his Continuin Legal Education programs as possible. Three years ago I had an opportunity to co-counsel with Thom on an estate administration in Florida. I was very impressed with the organization of Thom's office and the professionalism displayed by all of the attorneys working in his office. More importantly, Thom answered questions that I had regarding the federal tax aspects of the estate and kept the administration in Florida moving forward. He left all of the client communications in my hands. We developed a great working relationship and instilled trust in the client that together we could handle all of the many issues involved. That led to the ultimate planning experience as Thom and I worked together to prepare an elaborate Florida and federal estate plan for my surviving client. I am very pleased to have Thom as a colleague and friend.

Within 2 months she had a new will leaving her everything. She alienated him from everyone. Less than a year he was dead.

I own and run a number of reasonably high-profiled companies. I came to Brett with a number of legal issues involving former business partners and competitors. I was in up to my neck. My previous lawyer had failed miserably to get the cases going and I was left in a spot where several million dollars, and my companies' existence, were on the line. I saw Brett's online profile. He took care of me. He also reversed the tide against me, giving me victories despite what he first started with. He knows his stuff and is able to find issues where my other lawyer was left floundering. Also, he saved me money. Over the course of 18 months of representation, Brett charged me less than my former lawyer charged me in half that time. Brett is instinctive and honorable. I would not hesitate to hire him again.

Justin has been amazing in helping me with several legal issues in the past two years. Well after this review I will be needing to contact an attorney about Probate Law. Justin has been very kind to me and has spent time conversing with me over the phone and is knowledgable and well studied in many facets of law and has never failed to provide me the information and contacts needed to work through legal issues as they have arised. All this mentioned above and the fact Ithat Jistin is obviuosly not interested in obtaining a fee unless he can make a difference in the case. I am truly grateful for all Justin has done to help me. Do not hesitate to call on him for your legal needs. Thank You Justin!

I called Justin and left a message and didn’t expect to hear back from him. The next day which happened to be a Friday I received a call back from Justin at 7:30pm, and he wasn’t calling to schedule an appointment he was actually available to speak with myself and my husband and stayed on the phone with us until all our questions were answered. When you are facing a tax lien and looking to purchase a home it’s important that you get advice from someone who is knowledgeable and has experience dealing with the IRS. Justin did not sugar coat or make promises he gave us options and did not pressure us to work with him. We look forward to working with Justin in the near future.

I ended up having everything covered for any treatments, bills, medications, and vehicle replacement after having this firm handle my case and what's more is they recovered my lost wages as well as pain and suffering from having things dragged out by the at fault driver changing their story and the insurance giving me the run around on top of all of the struggle of my injuries and everything that came with them. I am still in pain to this day, still going through treatments for the back injury I received and had to go through rehab for but I have no financial stress which is a huge relief thanks to the team here!

My personal injury case was recently settled and I am very much happy with the result. The settlement amount for my truck accident was extremely fair and I was very happy with the attorney's fees. My hand was held through the whole process, and every time I called in I received answers to all my inquiries. I am healthy and thankful for all of the efforts their team put into my case.

We retained Ms. Walser's services to enhance our firm's executive compensation profile within our markets. After various options were reviewed, a NQDC 409A plan was implemented and has improved the perception of our exec benefits package with our targeted audiences even beyond our expectation. Ms. Walser is an excellent communicator, experienced in working closely with executive management, and understands how to present complicated areas of law at the Board level. We thoroughly recommend her and her team for strategic business enhancements using the law.

Rebecca spent a great deal of time with me. I have developed a unique concept for fundraising that needed clarification as to the tax implications for the donors. Rebecca listened, then added suggestions that improved my concept. She was engaged, informed, supportive & unbelievably helpful. I have never been so impressed with any other attorney I have worked with over the last 50 years. If you are looking for an attorney that is smart and caring, look no further than Rebecca Walser.

What a Tax Lawyer Can Do for You

A tax lawyer specializes in the complex area of tax law, offering legal advice and representation on matters related to tax compliance, disputes with tax authorities, and tax planning. Tax lawyers help individuals, businesses, and organizations navigate the intricacies of federal, state, and local tax laws. They ensure that clients are compliant with tax regulations, minimize tax liabilities, and represent them in audits, appeals, or disputes with tax authorities such as the IRS.

Whether you need assistance with personal taxes, corporate tax strategy, or resolving an audit, a tax lawyer can protect your rights and help you manage your financial responsibilities.

When Should I Hire a Tax Lawyer?

Hiring a tax lawyer is advisable in several situations where tax issues are complicated, disputes arise, or legal strategies are necessary to manage tax liability. Common reasons to hire a tax lawyer include:

  • Tax audits or disputes with the IRS: If you are facing an audit or have received a notice of deficiency from the IRS, a tax lawyer can represent you and defend your rights during the process.
  • Tax debt relief: If you owe back taxes or face significant tax liabilities, a tax lawyer can help negotiate a payment plan, settlement, or Offer in Compromise with the IRS.
  • Tax planning for businesses or individuals: A tax lawyer can advise on strategies to minimize tax liabilities through legal deductions, credits, and other tax-saving mechanisms.
  • International tax issues: If you have foreign assets or income, a tax lawyer can help you comply with international tax laws, such as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) or Foreign Bank Account Reporting (FBAR) requirements.
  • Tax fraud or evasion accusations: If you're being investigated or charged with tax fraud or evasion, a tax lawyer can provide a defense and negotiate with the authorities to minimize penalties.
  • Corporate tax law compliance: Businesses, especially large corporations, benefit from the expertise of a tax lawyer who can handle complex issues such as mergers and acquisitions, employee benefits, and international tax planning.
  • Estate and gift tax planning: A tax lawyer can help you minimize estate taxes and ensure your assets are passed on efficiently through trusts, wills, and other tax-efficient structures.

Hiring a tax lawyer early can prevent costly mistakes and ensure you are fully compliant with all applicable tax laws.

What Does a Tax Lawyer Do?

A tax lawyer provides a wide range of services to assist clients with tax compliance, tax planning, and legal disputes. Their key responsibilities include:

  • Tax planning and advisory: Helping individuals and businesses plan their tax strategies to reduce liability, avoid penalties, and maximize deductions and credits.
  • Representing clients in tax disputes: Defending clients in disputes with the IRS or state tax authorities, including audits, appeals, and collections actions.
  • Filing Offers in Compromise: Negotiating settlements with the IRS for clients who owe more than they can afford to pay.
  • Handling tax litigation: Representing clients in tax court or other legal proceedings if a tax dispute escalates beyond the administrative level.
  • Estate and gift tax planning: Advising clients on how to structure their estate to minimize estate and gift taxes, including creating trusts, family partnerships, or charitable giving plans.
  • Assisting with tax fraud investigations: Defending clients accused of tax fraud, evasion, or criminal tax offenses.
  • International tax compliance: Advising clients with offshore assets on U.S. tax compliance and reporting requirements, including FATCA and FBAR.

How Are Tax Lawyers Paid?

Tax lawyers typically charge for their services in various ways, depending on the complexity of the work involved and the nature of the legal assistance required. Common payment structures include:

  • Hourly rate: Many tax lawyers charge by the hour, especially for complex cases or ongoing legal work such as audit defense, tax litigation, or corporate tax planning. Hourly rates can range from $200 to $600 or more, depending on the lawyer's experience and location.
  • Flat fee: For specific tasks, such as preparing a legal document, filing an Offer in Compromise, or handling a routine audit, some lawyers charge a flat fee.
  • Retainer: For businesses or individuals with ongoing tax needs, a lawyer may require a retainer, which is an upfront payment used to secure the lawyer’s services and billed against as work is completed.
  • Contingency fee: In rare cases, particularly when negotiating settlements or resolving tax debts, a lawyer may charge a contingency fee based on the outcome of the case. This means they only get paid if they succeed in reducing your tax liability.

Always ask about the fee structure during the initial consultation to avoid surprises and ensure you understand how the lawyer will charge for their services.

How Much Does a Tax Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a tax lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the specific services required. Here are some general cost estimates:

  • Simple tax issues: For straightforward cases such as filing an Offer in Compromise or handling a routine audit, fees may range from $2,000 to $7,500.
  • Complex tax disputes: For more complicated cases, such as defending against tax fraud accusations, handling a significant IRS audit, or resolving international tax issues, costs can range from $10,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the time and effort involved.
  • Hourly rates: Tax lawyers typically charge between $200 and $600 per hour, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or cases involving high-stakes outcomes.
  • Flat fees: For specific services, such as tax planning for an estate or preparing a legal document, a flat fee may range from $1,000 to $10,000, depending on the complexity of the task.

Always get a detailed estimate of fees during your consultation so you can plan your budget accordingly.

Top Questions to Ask a Tax Lawyer

Before hiring a tax lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your situation. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with tax law?
    Ensure the lawyer has specific experience handling cases or issues similar to yours, whether it’s IRS disputes, corporate tax planning, or estate taxes.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify the lawyer’s fee structure - whether it’s hourly, flat fee, or retainer - and ask for an estimate of the total cost of your case.
  3. What are the potential outcomes of my case?
    Ask the lawyer to provide an honest assessment of your situation and the possible outcomes, such as tax reductions, settlements, or litigation results.
  4. Have you handled cases like mine before?
    Find out if the lawyer has experience with issues similar to yours, such as international tax compliance, criminal tax defense, or complex estate planning.
  5. What is the timeline for my case?
    Ask how long it will take to resolve your tax issue or dispute, as some tax matters can take months or years to fully settle.
  6. Will you handle my case personally?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work. Clarify who will be handling your case day-to-day.

How to Check the Credibility of a Tax Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable tax lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and experience:

  • Check their bar status: Verify with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing, with no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Look for specific tax law expertise: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in tax law and have handled cases like yours.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s expertise and service.
  • Ask for references: A credible tax lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can vouch for their ability to handle complex tax matters.
  • Look for professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Bar Association’s Section of Taxation or the National Association of Tax Professionals (NATP) can indicate that the lawyer stays current with tax law developments.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first meeting with a tax lawyer, it’s essential to come prepared with all relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Tax returns and records: Bring copies of recent tax returns, especially those related to the issue you're facing.
  • IRS correspondence: If you’ve received notices from the IRS or state tax authorities, bring all relevant documentation.
  • Financial records: Bring records of income, expenses, assets, and any other relevant financial documents that the lawyer may need to understand your tax situation.
  • List of questions: Prepare a list of questions to ask the lawyer about your case, the legal process, and the potential outcomes.
  • Timeline of events: Provide a clear timeline of any interactions with the IRS or tax authorities, including audits, notices, or payment demands.

By being well-prepared, you can ensure a productive consultation and help the lawyer assess your situation effectively, providing you with the best legal advice moving forward.
