Tax Litigation
Like any other legal dispute, a dispute with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) does not always have to end up in court. In many circumstances, the taxpayer and the agency can reach an amicable agreement outside of court without going through the complex litigation processes. However, when a resolution is not possible and litigation is inevitable, you will need an advocate with a unique combination of tax expertise and litigation experience.
At Daniel Albert Law, our team of Houston tax lawyers represents clients in all levels of IRS tax disputes and litigation. We have more than 20 years of experience in tax law disputes and a thorough understanding of Texas tax law, which means that we can help you efficiently resolve tax problems with the IRS. Contact us today to speak with one of our qualified and experienced tax attorneys.
If any proposed changes are found during a tax audit, the IRS agent mails a letter to the taxpayer (Letter 525) explaining the changes made to the tax return and notifying the taxpayer of their right to challenge the proposed changes within 30 days.
A meeting with an IRS Appeals Officer and filing a formal written protest detailing which proposed changes the taxpayer disagrees with and the grounds for the disagreement is typical of an appeal to dispute the proposed changes. If the taxpayer does not respond to the IRS letter within 30 days or if the Office of Appeals cannot reach an agreement, the taxpayer will likely be issued a notice of deficiency (CP3219N) with 90 days to file a petition with the Tax Court. If the taxpayer does not respond within 90 days, regardless of whether the proposed changes were made in error, the amount on CP3219N will be assessed.
At Daniel Albert Law, our clients benefit from a unique combination of varied, in-depth, and hands-on expertise in tax litigation matters that would generally be associated with a large law group while still receiving the individualized attention that comes with a boutique firm.
Our Houston tax litigation attorneys represent clients before the IRS at all stages of the tax dispute process, including audits and litigation before the Tax Court, trial courts, and Court of Appeals.
We give our clients a well-thought-out strategy for managing the audit and achieving a positive outcome. We try to achieve this as much as possible through settlement. However, if an administrative hearing or trial is inevitable, we are also prepared to protect our clients’ rights in court and help them obtain the best possible outcome.
