State & Federal Tax Litigation
Our State & Federal Tax Litigation team works closely with our nationally recognized Federal, State & Local Taxation practice group to defend our clients in all aspects of litigation associated with federal or state taxes. We regularly represent individuals in responsible party claims for unpaid withholding taxes, in claims for tax deficiencies, and claims for refunds, as well as corporate clients seeking to avoid liability or limit taxes on a state or federal level.
We have substantial experience before the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue and the Pennsylvania appellate courts, and are well-known for our role in shaping some of the most significant state tax decisions in the history of the Commonwealth. We also have substantial experience before the IRS, and are well-known to the many representatives who are charged with conducting field audits of clients. Our knowledge of the representatives and their preferences provides a significant benefit to our clients who are faced with the most unpleasant circumstances of a federal tax audit.
We are also well-prepared to, when necessary, litigate. When appropriate, we take aggressive positions on behalf of our clients, enabling them to achieve a favorable settlement or avoid liability entirely. Our longstanding reputation and credibility within the tax arena enables us to take positions and advance arguments that many other firms are unwilling or unable to do.
