Tax Court Representation Services

When disputes with the IRS arise, sometimes the best course of action is to challenge the findings in U.S. Tax Court.

At tax law firm of Moskowitz LLP, our highly experienced tax attorneys are skilled in using Tax Court litigation as a powerful tool to defend your rights, minimize liabilities, and achieve favorable outcomes that can’t always be secured through negotiation with the IRS alone.

While many taxpayers fear the idea of going to court, the truth is that litigation can be a highly effective strategy when dealing with the IRS.
Our team has extensive experience representing clients in Tax Court, where we rigorously challenge IRS determinations and fight to protect your rights, income and assets and financial future.

The Tax Court was formed to allow people to present their case in a fair and impartial atmosphere. We will do everything possible for you, within the bounds of the law, to strive to obtain for you the best possible outcome, regardless of your facts and circumstances including all the work that is done before trial to obtain our goal in a settlement without going to trial; however, everything that we do is for preparing for trial if that is what is in your best interest.

Why Choose Tax Court?

  • No Need to Pay First: One major advantage of filing a case in Tax Court is that you are not required to pay the disputed tax amount before the trial. This preserves your cash flow and allows you to fight the IRS without being forced to make payments you may not owe.
  • Independent Review: U.S. Tax Court judges are experts in tax law and provide an impartial review of your case. This means that instead of negotiating with the IRS agents, who are advocates for the IRS, who originally audited your return, your case is decided by a neutral party well-versed in tax law complexities.
  • Strategic Leverage: Filing a case in Tax Court can serve as powerful leverage in negotiations with the IRS. Knowing that you are willing to take your case to court can encourage tax authorities to offer more reasonable settlement terms or make concessions they might not otherwise consider.
  • Legal Experience to Maximize Your Defense: Tax law is incredibly technical, and a strong legal strategy can make the difference between success and failure in court. At Moskowitz LLP, we build your case on the facts and the law and use our deep knowledge of both tax law and IRS procedures to seek the best possible result for you within the bounds of the law.

How Moskowitz LLP Can Help in Tax Court.

Our experienced tax attorneys at Moskowitz LLP will represent you through the entire Tax Court process, from preparing and filing your petition to representing you in court proceedings. Our services include:

  • Pre-Trial Planning: We thoroughly review the IRS’s findings and audit reports, gathering critical evidence, and identifying legal arguments to challenge the government's position. Our goal is to uncover errors in the IRS’s determinations and develop a comprehensive defense strategy.
  • Litigation Expertise: Our tax attorneys have deep knowledge of the rules and procedures specific to Tax Court, allowing us to present your case effectively, with written briefs, oral arguments, and/or by introducing witnesses.
    Every aspect of your case is carefully prepared and presented.
  • Negotiation for Settlements: Often, the pressure of litigation can lead to favorable settlements outside of court. We use the possibility of trial as leverage to push for negotiated resolutions that provide you with the best possible outcome, within the bounds of the law.
  • Appeals and Higher Court Representation: If needed, our tax attorneys are prepared to take your case beyond Tax Court and into appellate courts, providing that every option is exercised to secure a favorable outcome.

Litigating a tax dispute can seem intimidating, but when handled strategically, it can be one of the most effective tools in a tax attorney’s arsenal. With Moskowitz LLP’s experienced Tax Court representation, you can turn an IRS dispute into an opportunity to obtain your best possible solution within the bounds of the law, safeguarding your financial future.
Let us fight for you in Tax Court to achieve that.
