An IRS Audit Notice Demands a Strategic Response

Receiving an IRS audit notice can be overwhelming. The stakes are real — additional taxes, penalties, and interest can add up quickly. But how you respond in the first few weeks often determines the outcome of the entire case. Having experienced representation from the start makes a measurable difference.

Whether you've received a correspondence audit letter, been selected for an office audit, or are facing a full field examination, we can help you understand your rights and build a defense.

  • Review your audit notice and identify the scope of the IRS examination
  • Assess your documentation and identify gaps before responding
  • Protect your appeal rights and preserve statute of limitations defenses
  • Develop a strategy to minimize additional tax, penalties, and interest

Common Questions

IRS Audit FAQs

How quickly do I need to respond to an IRS audit notice?

Most IRS audit notices give you 30 days to respond. However, the sooner you engage experienced representation, the more options you'll have. Delays can result in the IRS making determinations without your input, which are much harder to reverse after the fact.

Can I represent myself in an IRS audit?

You can, but it's generally not advisable. IRS auditors are trained to maximize assessments, and taxpayers who represent themselves often inadvertently provide information that expands the scope of the audit. An experienced tax attorney knows what to share, what to protect, and how to negotiate effectively.

What if I don't have all the documentation the IRS is requesting?

Missing documentation is one of the most common challenges in an IRS audit — and one we handle regularly. There are strategies for reconstructing records, using secondary evidence, and negotiating with the IRS when perfect records aren't available. We'll assess what you have and build the strongest case possible.

What are my appeal rights if the audit doesn't go well?

You have the right to appeal any IRS audit determination through the IRS Office of Appeals, and beyond that, to the U.S. Tax Court. Preserving these rights requires following specific procedures and deadlines. We'll make sure your appeal rights are protected throughout the process.
