I had over $60,000 worth of back taxes, interest and fees from an old relationship over 10 years ago. I paid for two other attorneys to try and help me… One call with this team and I knew I had the right place. The entire team was professional, available and confident, but Melissa was my contact and she brought me peace of mind, frank support and devotion to my situation. It took almost a year to work it out, but I am enormously grateful for all the hard work and commitment to my resolution. I am now debt free and to just type that brings tears to my eyes!! Thank you!!! Couldn’t recommend this company more!

The staff at Tax Law Advocates have been professional and courteous throughout this whole process. They have been genuinely invested in solving my issues with the IRS which is what I needed due to unforeseen circumstances. Thanks again for all you do TLA!

After a horrific experience with TLA's competitor (name starts with an O), who took $1000s, delivering an increased tax liability and repetitive notices from the IRS; I researched TLA and decided to give them a shot. TLA was able to reduce my tax liability down to near zero; WITHOUT requesting the IRS to reduce or waive my tax dept. The stark differences in O's and TLA performance provides the exact 'legal' evidence to prove that O did less than nothing, and that TLA fulfilled every promise. In fact, TLA overdelivered!!! Thank you, TLA. Thank you, thank you!

Melissa has been such an incredible and patient support throughout this process. I have appreciated her knowledge and guidance in such a challenging situation. I would definitely recommend Tax Law Advocates to anyone who needs comprehensive and compassionate services.

My experience with Tax Law Advocates didn’t actually start with me feeling this positive. Earlier in the process, I reached a point where I genuinely questioned the value of what I had paid for. When you spend money you really don’t want to spend dealing with a tax problem, you want to be able to see what you’re paying for. Eventually, my situation was escalated to Melissa, and after dealing with her, I understood why. I ask a lot of questions because I want to understand what is being done, why it’s being done, and what the possible consequences are. Melissa was patient with that. When I challenged something or needed more information, she listened, reviewed it, consulted with others when necessary, and came back with answers instead of generic responses. That completely changed my experience. I won’t publicly discuss the specifics of my tax situation, but we achieved a result that I am extremely happy with. The result was satisfying, the relief was real, and ultimately I could finally see the value in what I had paid for. For the record, I don’t know Melissa personally. I’ve never met her, and I couldn’t even tell you what she looks like. I know her through one thing: the job I needed done. I may not know what Melissa looks like, but I know what her work looks like—and the job I needed done got done. I actually wondered whether Melissa was a partner at the firm because she carries herself as though she has ownership in its success and reputation. If she is a partner, that makes perfect sense. If she isn’t, I hope the people making those decisions recognize what they have in her. She strikes me as the kind of person a company should retain, develop and build around. Melissa, with all the positive recognition you receive, I sincerely hope you remain grounded and never lose the humility, patience and genuine care for people that helped earn that recognition in the first place. And yes, I recommend Tax Law Advocates—not only because of Melissa. My experience wasn’t perfect from the beginning, but when my situation needed greater attention, Tax Law Advocates recognized it, escalated it and put the right person in the right place. That says something important about the firm itself. Tax Law Advocates has my recommendation. Melissa has my sincere gratitude.

They have protected me from the IRS from badgering me. I forwarded the notices I received and they let me know if ii need to b concerned. Melissa is always courteous and supportive when we discuss items related to the tax notices.

I had originally hired a different firm and had paid them a significant amount of money over several months with absolutely no results and very little contact except for me calling them for help navigating an email they had sent me. Then somehow I came across Tax Law Advocates and for some reason decided to switch companies and boy am I glad I did. Malea Shapley was my rep and not only was she very professional, she was as sweet and kind as a person can be. She was also on the ball and kept in contact with me constantly and walked me through everything that I needed to do and she got through to the IRS and had a deal for me so fast it made my head spin. I’ve learned through experience ($the hard way$) That all companies that claim to offer this service are not equal so please take what I’ve learned and don’t make the same mistake I made, hire the best first. I promise you won’t regret it. Thank you and God bless you, Malea

I had a very good experience working with Melissa Ponce over the past few months. She is very professional, helpful and a pleasure to work with.
