With over 31 years of experience in legal and financial fields as a Lawyer and Certified Public Accountant with a Masters of Tax Law at the Law Offices of Stephen B. Kass, P.C. I have extensive experience representing businesses and high-net-worth individuals in tax controversies and reorganization. I have filed and confirmed multiple Chapter 11 cases and developed strategies addressing severe tax and financial challenges. My work is driven by a commitment to excellence and providing innovative solutions for real estate and tax-related challenges.
In the past few years, I have done a lot of NY sales tax workouts resulting in over $25M in savings with extended payouts using NYS's offer program.
I also work on individual cases involving high tax debt needing tailored resolution plans.

Highly recommended
During our consultation Stephen listened and gave a clear recommended approach to resolving my issue. He’s very practical and honest, with none of the usual legal hard sell or scaremongering. I’ll definitely be using him again.
