Tax Court Representation

If you received a Notice of Deficiency or IRS notice proposing additional tax, penalties, or adjustments, you may have a limited window to act. Tax court representation allows you to challenge the IRS before paying the disputed amount.

Deadlines are strict — typically 90 days — and missing that deadline may permanently eliminate your ability to use Tax Court.

I work directly with individuals to evaluate their case, file petitions, and represent them throughout the Tax Court process.

No obligation. Get clear information before your filing deadline passes.

Why Acting Quickly Is Critical

Tax Court deadlines are not flexible. If you do not file your petition on time, you may lose your right to challenge the IRS in Tax Court.

This can force you to pay the tax first and pursue other, more limited options afterward.

What Is Tax Court?

The United States Tax Court is a federal court that allows taxpayers to dispute IRS determinations before paying the full amount.

Cases typically involve audits, penalties, or proposed deficiencies. Tax court representation ensures your position is properly presented through legal arguments, evidence, and procedural compliance.

When You May Need Tax Court Representation

• Responding to a Notice of Deficiency
• Challenging IRS audit results
• Disputing penalties or adjustments
• Cases involving complex tax or legal issues
• Situations where IRS negotiations have not resolved the matter

Speak with an attorney before your filing deadline expires.

Why You Should Not Handle a Tax Court Case Alone

Tax Court cases involve strict procedural rules, evidentiary requirements, and legal arguments.

Errors in filing, missed deadlines, or incomplete submissions can affect the outcome of your case.

A structured legal approach helps ensure your rights are protected and your case is presented effectively.

Benefits of Tax Court Representation

• Challenge IRS determinations without paying first
• Protect your procedural rights
• Present legal arguments effectively
• Improve your ability to negotiate a resolution
• Potentially reduce or eliminate taxes and penalties
