Fabulous Tax Attorney

Marvin Karana was fabulous, he is very respectful, professional and talented tax attorney. My husband and I owed $21,000, to State and $86,000.00 in Federal. Marvin Settled our Mi State tax for $100.00 and Federal (still pending) but expect $50.00. He was referred to me via another Attorney, and s...he was right he is very Good. I would like to add that, when taxes get behind you have a paper nightmare, they are the worst and penalties keep accruing. I was afraid to call them and set up payment arrangements, dealing with such a huge collections company. We hired another Company with the IRS problem, they made it worse. Marvin cut through all the BS and got it done, He always kept me informed. I would recommend highly to anyone. Thanks Marvin..

Satisfied customer

He did a miracle for us. Fully released us front huge state and federal liabilities. It took awhile, but he stayed on the government and got them to send us letters of release for a token offering. We can now start rebuilding a future without the black clouds of debt over every action we do. We highl...y recommend Marvin, don't hesitate to get him involved in your situation. Thanks again Marvin.

Tax Issues

I had a debt with the State of Michigan and the IRS for close to half a million dollars and retained Marvin and he settled both balances for $100 each. I cannot begin to explain how great he was in this whole process. I recommend using Marvin for any tax issues he went above and beyond all expectatio...ns I had.

Best Tax Attorney

In a matter of 13 months, Marvin Karana changed my life. After 16 years of owing the IRS a considerable amount of money, Marvin was able to clear my debt for mere pennies. He was quick to resolve this matter, courteous, non-judgmental and kept me up to date with my case. I am forever grateful to M...arvin and gladly give him high praise and recommendation. BEST TAX ATTORNEY AROUND!

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.
