Overview
The federal tax controversy and litigation practice group has significant experience in the resolution of contested tax matters at all stages: examination, administrative appeals, trial and appellate review. Lawyers from other sections of the firm with experience in the litigation of tax cases are also available to assist in the preparation, trial, and appeal of larger tax cases. While firm lawyers have formidable tax litigation experience, our goal in representing clients in contested tax matters is to resolve the matter as early in the process as possible in a manner that achieves the economic objectives of our client and does not needlessly impair their ongoing relationship with the IRS. When we have been engaged early in the process, we have had significant success in resolving matters without trial. We are also very experienced in the mediation of tax controversies.
