Print PDF Audit Defense and Management

Our firm understands that the most favorable substantive and procedural results often are achieved early in the audit process.  We assist our clients in establishing priorities, developing  strategies, negotiating methodologies, designing statistical samples, and implementing the details of the client’s audit plan, all with a watchful eye on tax laws and the client’s specific situation.  Our attorneys’ experience in recognizing even subtle differences in methods, facts and circumstances allow them to assist clients in achieving favorable audit results.

We appreciate that the best litigation strategy often is litigation avoidance.  Our attorneys and other tax professionals routinely assist clients in creatively resolving areas of potential dispute, with a view toward establishing effective and efficient tax compliance procedures to apply in the future.  Often, issues may be defused at the agent level, before it develops into a  full-blown dispute, and our attorneys regularly work with taxing authorities, at all levels, to achieve reasonable resolutions of tax disputes without the need for litigation.  Our firm also constantly seeks approaches and methods that may minimize the potential tax assessment, within the priorities set by our clients.
