Tax Penalty Relief

My husband and I worked with Shirin for a couple years, attempting to resolve our debt and subsequent penalty issues with the IRS. We had previously enlisted the services of a tax relief company (at a huge price) which mislead us, neglected us, and ultimately went bankrupt. We were lucky enough to ha...ve our case assigned to Shirin. I’m sure there are more complicated cases, but it certainly seemed our case suffered from a lot of ambiguity. Shirin was tireless in her attempts to work with the IRS on our behalf. We sent her reams of documentation, which she and her team reviewed and encapsulated into a persuasive case for relieving us of the penalties that had been assessed. She provided us with consistent and wise advice throughout the process and remained in constant contact with us. Although we never met face-to-face, I considered her more than an advocate. It is difficult, at best, to be personable with a client long distance, but I never doubted Shirin’s commitment to us and the resolution for our issues with the IRS.

Tax Issues - Business

Our outcome was better than we anticipated. Shirin Chahal's advice and counseling helped us reduce our tax debt. And thanks to her hard work and perseverance, we also received an abatement. I am so grateful that Shirin continued to work on our case, even when we thought there was no hope. Tax matte...rs are complicated, and can be frustrating at times. Shirin not only understood the legalities, but was also able to understand our emotional response to situations we were facing. During the time Shirin represented our business, her professionalism was outstanding. Shirin was always available for questions and explained matters in terms we understood. Whenever we contacted her, she always made time to discuss our case. I would definitely recommend Shirin Chahal for your legal matters.

Help with Copyright Infringement

We hired Shirin to help us with a copyright infringement matter involving the use of logos we weren't licensed to sell. She was a constant professional who kept us informed during the entire process. She dealt with the problem and made it go away very quickly. We are very thankful for her help and kn...owledge and would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Shirin.
