When I was notified of a comprehensive IRS audit concerning my small business's tax filings, I was overwhelmed and anxious. I needed an attorney who understood both the technical details of tax law and the practical realities of dealing with federal agencies. Michelle Espey at Farrell Fritz was exactly that. From our first consultation, her deep knowledge was evident. She didn't just recite statutes; she explained the audit process, the specific areas of focus for the IRS, and crafted a strategic, proactive response. Her background, including her recognition in Litigation and Controversy - Tax, gave me immense confidence. Michelle and her team meticulously organized years of financial records, prepared clear position papers, and handled all communications with the revenue agent. Her approach was both thorough and pragmatic, always keeping my business's operational needs in mind. The result was a favorable resolution that significantly reduced the proposed assessment and avoided any penalties. Michelle’s professionalism, her Quinnipiac-honed expertise, and her calm, commanding presence throughout the entire ordeal were invaluable. I cannot recommend her highly enough for anyone facing serious tax matters in New York.
