Whether you are experiencing personal or business tax issues, my team and I are here to help. I have over thirty years of experience representing clients in a variety of tax matters. I can help you with a broad range of tax matters including failure to file tax returns, delinquent payroll taxes, tax audits, installment agreements, offers-in-compromise and tax-related bankruptcies. It is my goal to help you find the solution, or combination of solutions, that will best meet your immediate and long-term needs.
