Amazing Tax Attorney

“When I received a letter from the IRS that my Tax Return from 3 years earlier was being audited, attorney Alyssa Whatley was a lifesaver! She broke it down for me into plain English, poured through my documents (a complicated combination of owning my own business and personal) and put together an extremely thorough binder to respond to the questions raised by the IRS. I am so relieved to have received a letter from the IRS this week that they did not make any changes to the tax reported on my original return. I highly recommend working with Alyssa Whatley. She knows tax inside and out and really goes the extra mile for her clients.” —Kim
