Highly recommended!

During our nearly three years working together, I have been consistently impressed by Ellyn’s attention to detail, dedication, resourcefulness, perseverance and honest guidance when it has come to resolving my extremely complicated tax situation. Upon receiving permanent residency to the US, I discov...ered I owed several years' worth of taxes to the government. Navigating both tax law and the US immigration law, Ellyn left no stone unturned as she investigated the facts and triangulated her findings with various sources in order to be able to file city, state and federal taxes on my behalf. Each fact and figure was supported by a specific tax code or detailed advice from an authority in the IRS who Ellyn personally contacted. Throughout the process, Ellyn’s genuine concern for my case and cheery disposition made her a real pleasure to work with. I cannot recommend Ellyn highly enough - you can rest assured, she will get to the bottom of even the most challenging of tax situations!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
