Representation on IRS Issues

Keith has been representing me for over 10 years with IRS issues dating from 2001 & 2002. I have found him and his firm to be very knowledgeable about IRS regulations and over the years they have helped me greatly with the IRS and the cumbersome and non-responsiveness of personnel representing the I...RS. Many times he has demonstrated his expertise in IRS regulations versus IRS personnel who favor their expediency versus the tax payers rights. On the most recent issue the IRS has agreed to refund $52,500 that without Keith's vast knowledge of the IRS regulations and his explaining to the IRS representatives what they should be looking at, would not have been granted. In fact the IRS's first pass over of the issues was to offer a $24,000 refund but after Keith's explanation to them of my rights they agreed to the full amount that should have always been provided. I have full faith in Johnson and Johnson, P.A. as a law firm and Keith Johnson as a lawyer. He never quit even when so-called tax relief organization would most likely have settled for much less or in a worst case scenario claimed victory by asking me to pay a small sum to the IRS and to them. Thank you Keith, for a job well done.

Great Bankrupt and Tax Attorney

Keith Johnson was highly recommended to me by a family member and exceeded all expectations with getting me through a difficult time. Mr. Johnson is one of the most knowledgeable and professional bankrupt and tax attorneys in the business. He and his staff were considered very professional and confid...ent in their area of expertise. I highly recommend his services based on knowing that you are getting the best resolve and / or results obtainable.

Not impressed

Mr. Johnson may know tax law, but he nickel and dimes his clients by charging double what other firms do for copies, mailings and the like. Makes copies of things that could be emailed so he can charge extra. Copied documents that didn;t need to be copied for me. Billed me for cover letters that w...ere done by his assistants and only signed by him. He dodges calls when he doesn't feel like talking to his clients. One time I couldn't get in touch with him regarding my case and was told he was out of the office (I was standing in the parking lot), he was very much there. I don't appreciate being lied to and the staff seem to "lie" whenever Mr. Johnson decides they should. Overall, he burned through my $5,000 retainer with absolutely NO progress. Would not recommend him, but there aren't many options out there for tax attorneys. Bottom line: try and find another knowledgeable tax attorney because his $5k quote will end up costing you double.

Knowledgeable and Experienced

Mr. Johnson and his staff were knowledgeable and experienced in their work to successfully settle our IRS penalty abatement issue. An IRS penalty abatement can take months to complete. Fortunately Mr. Johnson uses his time effectively and efficiently to lend his expertise with reasonable billing.

Keith H Johnson

I started working with Keith Johnson almost 4 years ago. I went to him because I owed over 20,000 in back taxes and looking at bankruptcy. This man and his staff guided me through the whole process with my taxes and my bankruptcy. This man saved me an amazing amount of money, he is plain brilliant.... I don't know how else to say it. You can find less expensive but hands down, you get what you pay for. I can't begin to tell you the work that went into my case. Several foreclosures, banks, creditors calling up until 9:00pm at night, they talked me through everything. He has also helped me with my kids taxes saving us all money. He also became a friend. I would not trust anyone else with my taxes or bankruptcy. Also, his staff, Adam, Michelle and Rose are extremely professional, patient. and compassionate.
