I’ve been practicing law for almost 20 years and focusing on Tax Debt Solutions for the last 11 years. Yes, my experience is tailored to handle exactly what my clients need. I have a comprehensive knowledge of IRS and SC Tax relief programs. I’m highly skilled in the areas of negotiation and creative thinking/problem solving.

 

APPROXIMATELY HOW MANY CASES HAVE YOU HANDLED?

I have handled between 1000 and 1500 cases.

 

WILL YOU RETURN MY CALLS AND EMAILS?

ALWAYS! I respond immediately if available, but rarely more than 24 hours after I receive a voicemail or email. I understand that a lack of communication is a common complaint that clients have with their attorney.

 

PEOPLE SAY I’M A STICKLER FOR?

Punctuality… I don’t like to waste my time or that of my clients.

Meeting Deadlines… My practice deals with hard deadlines set by the IRS, and I need my clients to meet those (always with my help, of course).

 

WHAT DO YOU ENJOY OUTSIDE OF WORK?

When I’m not working for my clients, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two kids. I have a 15-year-old daughter and a 13-year-old son who is very active in sports.

I also enjoy playing golf, watching college football, and shooting pool. When we are able to get away, I really love to travel.
