I engaged John Biek of Neal, Gerber & Eisenberg to assist with a complex Illinois state tax audit that escalated into a formal controversy. His credentials from Georgetown and his firm's reputation were certainly factors in my choice. Mr. Biek's 18 years of experience were evident; his grasp of the technical tax law issues was comprehensive, and his recognition in the field of tax litigation felt well-deserved. He successfully navigated the core dispute, achieving a settlement that was financially acceptable. However, the experience was not without its frustrations. Communication sometimes lagged, with responses taking several days during critical periods, which added to my stress. While the legal strategy was sound, the process felt less collaborative than I had hoped, with expectations around timelines and my involvement not always clearly managed. For straightforward, high-stakes tax litigation, his expertise is undeniable. Just be prepared to proactively manage the client-attorney dynamic and have patience with the pace of correspondence.
