We handle a variety of tax concerns at the state level, including:

  • Tax collection
  • Audits
  • Appeals
  • Refunds

Since there is no income tax in Washington, most state tax disputes involve sales tax. Some people erroneously believe that this is just an issue for businesses that collect the sales tax. But the use tax may apply to ordinary individuals as well. When sales tax is at issue, there are a lot of receipts and piles of paperwork that must be organized in order to accurately demonstrate your financial situation. For example, have you made major purchases in Canada or Oregon? It is important to have the proper documentation of your personal and business transactions from out-of-state purchases.

Business Sales Tax Disputes

Many state tax issues stem from sales tax disputes with businesses. For example, used car dealers often run into problems when there is an exchange of automobiles. If you are a business owner disputing sales tax disputes with the state, I can help you get a fair tax break and avoid a small business tax lien by accurately portraying the transactions you have made.
