A trustworthy & knowledgeable tax attorney

Due to various reasons, I had created a large tax liability with the IRS. After speaking with various people, Marvin Karana came highly recommended as someone I should meet. I quickly realized that this was the person I needed. Marvin put my mind at ease by explaining my options and what to expect of... the entire process. Every step of the way, he kept me informed on where things stood and what to expect. He is very knowledgeable and seems to have handled every possible situation when it comes to tax issues. He drastically reduced my tax liability and created affordable payment plans for me. I am very grateful for Marvin and would highly recommend his services to anyone.

Reaches Unbelievable Settlements!

I consulted with Marvin after doing lots of research because I had a severe tax issue that was causing me extreme financial and emotional stress, and it was imperative that it was handled as expeditiously as possible. Not only was Marvin extremely honest, fair, and compassionate, he's also FAST! He h...as unquestionable integrity and undeniable knowledge in his field. I owed the IRS $70,000 and Marvin was able to reach an unbelievable settlement of only $500! I've recommended him to any one of my friends who've expressed tax ills or any criminal defense related issues.

Solved my issues when others couldn't

Went to countless other attorneys before finding Marvin. He is professional and takes the time to help you understand your issue. He settled my tax issue as he said he would. Would highly recommend Marvin to anyone with tax troubles.

Great Offer with the IRS

I owed a ton of money to the IRS. After trying to deal with them for years Marvin was able to reach an unbelievable settlement for me!!! Highly recommended.

Reasonable fees and very fair!

Marvin was very knowledgeable and experienced with my case. He knew exactly what I needed done and did not beat around the bush. He was reasonably priced and did not try to hike up his hours like many other attorneys do. Marvin also handled a traffic matter for me and a criminal one for my brother... for which he got great outcomes on both!
