Real Client Testimonials

Don’t Listen to Us, Listen to Our Customers

We faced an insane uphill battle with an error that hit our Tax Return - putting us in a position to owe 3 million dollars on our federal return. After months of trying to contact the IRS and work with them with no success, we finally got in touch with Joel's team. All it took was a quick conversation with Joel on my first call to his office for him to set up a profile, plan of action, and immediately begin working on our case. We started work on this (in the middle of both tax season and upheavals/layoffs within the IRS) in early February and by early March the issue was resolved, all penalties were wiped, and we were able to take a breath for the first time in over a year since the owed amount had been communicated to us by the IRS. Cannot thank Joel and his team enough for not only reassuring us through the entire process that they had it handled with frequent updates and clarification, but working so quickly to get the issue resolved so it wasn't weighing on us. So grateful for the empathy and urgency that Joel showed us during this entire ordeal and would not hesitate to recommend him to others.
