OVERVIEW

Tax Controversy

Barnes & Thornburg’s Tax practice advises taxpayers on planning for, resolving, and litigating federal, state, and local tax audits and controversies. We are skilled in the often difficult terrain associated with the tax controversy process. Our advice ranges from planning for and defending a tax audit to handling administrative appeals before the Internal Revenue Service and state and local tax authorities. In the event a tax controversy is not resolved by the administrative process, we litigate all related tax claims through trial and on appeal.
