Compassionate Capable Attorney
Mu husband had some tax problems so I called Attorney Weisberg to see if he could help us. I accepted his services and he got right to work and was able to negotiate with the IRS to get us a payment plan we could live with. We feel a burden has been lifted.

Excellent tax attorney
I reached out to Stephen after getting a tax lien. He was very helpful and resolved the matter very quickly so that I could afford the payments. He is wonderful to work with and I would definitely go to him in the future.
