If your taxes are being investigated by the IRS or the state of Washington, you want to resolve the matter as quickly as possible. I understand your immediate concerns, but will work with you to make sure you don't lose sight of your long term goals. I am ready to help you with a variety of legal and tax services, including:

  • Federal Tax Litigation: If you are unable to reach an agreement with the Internal Revenue Service Appeals Department or your tax auditor, you will have to go to tax court to reach a final settlement.
  • IRS Appeals: Are you unhappy with the IRS's decision regarding your audit? The IRS's appeals representative is often more flexible and independent than an auditor.
  • IRS Collection: Has the IRS started collecting money from you that you just don't have? I can help you stop their actions as we work to reach a long term solution.
  • Federal Audit Representation: By preparing a comprehensive and complete tax audit now, you can save yourself from costly litigation in the future.
  • Washington State Tax Issues: Is your business having trouble filing the appropriate sales tax forms? I can help make sure your state tax documents are in order.
  • Dairy Marketing and Federal Orders: I spent nine years working for the federal milk market administrator. I understand the complexities regarding federal and California dairy administration.
  • Business and Commercial Laws: If you are considering forming a business or currently have a business, I can advise you on the best ways to maximize your tax benefits.
  • Estate Planning, Wills, and Trusts: How will the future of your estate be affected by taxes? I can help you devise an estate plan that will minimize tax consequences.
  • Criminal Law: Have you been charged and/or arrested with a misdemeanor or DWI in Pierce County? If you live locally or out of town, you should hire an experienced lawyer to defend against your criminal charges.
