Do you have an "impossible" tax law problem?

Please feel free to ask any judge or lawyer you may know and trust if he or she would feel comfortable referring you to me. That is how most of my clients come to me.

Understanding the IRS

IRS personnel do not resolve cases favorably for taxpayers to be nice, or even because it is reasonable for them to do so. They only do so when they are forced to, out of their concern over the hazards of potential litigation against the taxpayer and his tax attorney.

With a unique combination of specialized tax law and litigation training and experience, I can provide the highest possible hazard of litigation against the IRS for my clients.
My training and experience:
AV (highest possible) peer-reviewed Martindale-Hubbell rating continously since 1985
Both a J.D. and an advanced law degree -- LL.M. (in Taxation) -- from NYU Law School, recognized as the nation's premiere training ground for tax attorneys
A former professor of tax law at Tulsa University Law School
Over 27 years of experience in complex tax law and litigation
For a more comprehensive look at my experience resolving IRS problems, please review my resume. What my resume will tell you is that I am a highly trained and experienced tax law problem specialist and a veteran trial and appellate litigator.
