Excellent EDD Audit

TO: RJS LAW 303 A Street, Suite 400 San Diego, CA 92101 FROM: Happy Client Subject: Thank you for your great service. I would like to personally thank you and your staff for providing excellent support during my recent EDD audit. We ar...e a busy company and did not expect to receive a request from the EDD to audit our records. We do maintain our records in accordance with all laws, but dealing with a government entity is a very stressful event. I decided to contact your firm to provide guidance in the process. I wanted to make sure we responded to the EDD in a structured a professional manner. During my initial visit to your company I met Allison Soares. Allison led the conversation and immediately made me feel at ease. She explained the audit process and made me feel at ease. This allowed me to understand the process and see that RJS had a plan to help me through this stressful event. During the audit Allison interfaced directly with the EDD on behalf of my company, provided me with a list of the items I need to provide to the EDD and answered my many questions about the process. The audit was completed quickly and as low stress and possible. I am truly impressed with your company and with Allison. I am grateful that we engaged you at the beginning of the audit process. Thank you for your excellent service and professionalism. I would definitely recommend RJS and Allison to anyone going through a similar process. Kindest regards, Thomas

Outstanding Tax Attorney Allison Soares!

I was referred to Allison by a friend of mine and everything she said about Allison at RJS was true. I was in such a state when I called Allison about my taxes and explained that the IRS did not want to work with me. Allison, calmed me down, told me exactly what she was going to do and what I could... expect once the process was complete. Everything that Allison said would happen, happened. I found Allison to be courteous, professional, honest, friendly, responsive and very helpful. Thank you Allison for getting my tax issues resolved, you are an incredible attorney and person.

Need A Great Tax Attorney?!

This was one of the best experiences I've ever had with any attorney and law firm. Allison and RJS went above and beyond all of my reasonable expectations and I would recommend them to anyone. She was able to lower the monthly payment figure to the IRS and FTB almost 50% from our initial consultati...on. This will allow me to concentrate on making money for myself and my family in the future with a specific budget moving forward! Thanks Allison and RJS!!!

"Allison Soares is one of the most dedicated and professional attorneys that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She has a wealth of knowledge regarding both corporate law and tax law and willingly shares that knowledge to educate her clients. She has a strong work ethic and is dedicated to ensuring that her clients receive the best possible outcome given their individual situations. She will work tirelessly on a client's behalf and try unique approaches that other attorneys don't consider.
