Accuracy. Integrity. Personal Service.
Chris is an Enrolled Agent licensed by the United States Internal Revenue Service. In addition to working at a Big Four accounting firm, he has worked as an attorney at the Internal Revenue Service and the New Jersey Tax Court. He is licensed to practice law in New Jersey and the District of Columbia.
Enrolled Agents specialize in taxation and earn their license by passing a federally-administered exam focused solely on taxation. To maintain their license, they are required to take continuing education courses every year related entirely to individual and business taxation. To demonstrate their continued proficiency in taxation they must also pass additional exams for each course. While a CPA may be able to handle tax matters, not all CPAs practice or specialize in taxation. Additionally, while CPAs are licensed by states, Enrolled Agents are licensed by the federal government and hold the only tax license with nationwide recognition.
In addition to representing taxpayers before the Internal Revenue Service regardless of their residency, Chris can represent taxpayers in state tax audits and controversies.
