The Best there is!!
Michael was absolutely amazing.. Walked me through everything so I could actually understand the IRS lengo & gave me confidence to handle certain issues myself! He is in this to help others and not line his pockets!! Helped me handle my debt and resolve it for much much less than expected and made a stressful situation manageable and less scary. Can't thank him enough for all his help!

Professional Experienced Tax Attorney
We had a very large tax debt that has been haunting us for several years. Dealing with dozens of IRS letters and feeling like we were running out of options we searched out Michael Anderson online. We read many of his reviews that were posted online and made the call to him.
Michael was very calming to speak with and we could tell from the conversation that he new what he was doing. Did not make any promises but was very reassuring and he was confident he could help us with our tax debt . He asked great questions and provided us with different options, explaining how he could approach our problem to handle IRS collections.
We felt confident he would do the best job possible and he did. Michael was able to get the collection stopped and the outcome we had hoped for. Totally recommend his service to anyone... He is the real deal when it comes to a difficult tax situation. Don't wait call him you won't be sorry.

Life Changing Results
Michael told me what the likely outcome would be, and he nailed it. He should have charged me twice what he did, and I have a hard time believing he made anything considering the amount of time he spent updating me and responding to my questions.
He made me feel comfortable, confident, and kept me updated every step of the way. He is one of the good ones.
The results Michael got for me literally changed my life. I will always be grateful and HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who has any tax issues.
You won't be sorry.

A credit to the profession
I cannot express how grateful I am to Mr. Anderson for the skill and experience he employed on our behalf to deal with a very stressful and pressing issue with the IRS. Matters with the IRS are extremely complicated. However, his intimate knowledge of how the IRS addresses issues and how best to work with the IRS to overcome those issues was obvious from the start and in every meeting we had. Mr. Anderson's calm and measured demeanor when discussing the challenges in our matter, and his careful and clear explanations of issues and solutions helped us to make good decisions based upon the facts and the likelihood of success with our goals. Additionally, his fees were more than reasonable and he kept us updated on our matter at every stage and milestone. Michael is an excellent practitioner, I would not hesitate to retain him again and wholeheartedly recommend him without reservation.

Solved the Problem
Out of the blue, in August 2020, the IRS sent me three letters. One for 2010, one for 2012 and one for 2013. Each one saying I owed over $5000 in penalties for each year for not filing some form that I really had filed. I had Postal return receipts for each year. No letters from IRS were ever received before indicating any sort of problem. I was totally shocked. My attempts to contact anyone at the IRS totally failed. It was like nobody was home. Even Michael initially had difficulty contacting anyone. At some point, after I had hired Michael, IRS turned everything over to a collections agency. Michael was able to reverse that so he could properly deal with the problem. Finally received letters from the IRS, due to Michael's work, canceling the penalties. No indication of what went wrong at the IRS. I am a software engineer with 56 years continuous experience writing scientific software so I know something must have glitched within the IRS systems. It could happen to you too. They have not acknowledged any sort of problem but at least Michael was able to have the issue resolved. This was a tremendous relief! Having the IRS dunning you out of the blue for something you didn't do is terrorizing! THANK YOU MICHAEL! GREAT JOB!

Communicative. Honest. Professional. Smooth and easy process.
Michael Anderson helped myself, family members and friends file bankruptcy. For such a stressful time, he made the process as smooth and easy as possible. In the court room, others who were not represented well, did not receive the same outcome or treatment from the judges. When they saw Mr. Anderson’s name on the paperwork, they knew he did everything accurately and correctly. The discharge was a painless process and it changed my life. It’s so important to do these things right. Even more so on the reason I recommend him...Since the bankruptcy, 10 years ago! Michael Anderson has still always answered my calls or emails to lend advice. Almost always that same day. I am so unbelievably impressed by his level of knowledge and his communication and kindness. You just cannot find this type of service anywhere these days. Thank you so much for everything! I wish I could leave you 100 stars!!

Bankruptcy Chapter 7 - IRS Issues
Michael is well qualified and it is evident once you allow him to handle your case! Like the rest of you maybe reading this, finding a competent attorney to represent you and producing the best outcome can be a stressful, daunting task piled on top of an already heaping pile of uncertainty and nonsense. I can personally tell you, Michaels professionalism and knowledge made the difference for me by handling my IRS debt and other creditors. His calm, collected and thoughtful approach to solving problems went a long way in realizing the best outcome for my situation. 100% satisfied! If he can handle the IRS , he can handle just about anything! I am confident his next client will be as impressed!
Thank you Michael!

Mr. Anderson is the consummate professional you hope your lawyer will be!
I was being sued and had to decide about filing bankruptcy. Mr. Anderson could not have been more perfect for me, in that he explored all the possibilities and not only pointed me in the best direction, but skillfully guided the entire process. I was very grateful that he cared about my case as if it were his own. That diligent attention to time and detail was valuable to me as I had never undergone any experience like it and felt dependent on his knowledge. He is the consummate professional that I would recommend to anyone, knowing that he would treat their case with the highest respect and integrity. Thank you, Mr. Anderson!

Tax Problem
My husband and I had a tax problem and was a little worried about dealing with the IRS. After the 1st meeting all my worries were gone. Mr Anderson reviewed our case, gave us plan and our situation was resolved in just a few months. Another great thing is his fees are very reasonable.
Follow his advice and you can't go wrong.
