Best Lawyer to have for IRS / TAX Problems

We met David after receiving a terrible tax liability notice from IRS. We were what David referred to as the "turbo tax affectees" We took some bad advice from the online forum and filed our taxes. The result was pretty stiff penalty and we didn't know what to do. David was the absolute right person ...to deal with this matter. He told us that he had seen cases like us and explained the whole process in great detail from that point onwards. We were so touched by his empathy and simple nature that we felt as if we had come to a family elder for help. He told us on day one that even though IRS is a very bureaucratic and complex organization he is was very optimistic that we will come out good on the other side. David is a very thorough professional which is reflected in the briefs he prepared and we were pleased with the level of details he incorporated in these after interviewing us in detail. With David we felt the comfort level and confidence that we were truly in good hands because of his vast experience and sympathetic nature, truly a gentleman. He was personally available to us throughout the the whole ordeal. We couldn't have selected a better person to fix our inadvertent mistake on a tax form. With David you get heavy weight legal professional with tremendous experience on your side and believe me you do. He is such a great guy we can't thank him enough to help us. Highly recommend him for all the tax related problems and issues that you may have. He is amazing.

High praise for David Greenberg

My husband and I were referred to Mr. Greenberg through our EAP. He immediately made time to consult with us regarding a complex situation with the IRS. Mr. Greenberg methodically explained everything to us and made our work a priority. He walked us through everything we needed to know and each step.... He also monitored our progress to ensure deadlines were met and the terms of our agreement were correct. Mr. Greenberg was a true professional with tremendous expertise in this area of law and has an impeccable track record. We are so thankful for his services and his attention to detail. We highly recommend Mr. Greenberg for legal services related to tax matters. He took the uncertainty and fear that we had away and allowed us to methodically work toward a solution that was acceptable. He does not “sugar coat” things and educated us along the way. The process required a lot of our time as well and there were many things we did not understand until he explained them. He is very direct and honest which we appreciated.

My Bankruptcy Case

Mr. Greenberg provided relief to my life situation that I never thought I could achieve. My name is Marlene and I have had financial hardships in the past 8 years. It began with divorce and followed by losing my job which supported me and my daughter. As a single mom I was already in some heavy de...bt, so losing my job was simply devastating. For 4 years I struggled. It was difficult to find a comparable management position and so I had to take odds jobs doing everything from babysitting to cleaning homes. I could barely put food on the table. The mounting debt weighted so heavy on me and the phone calls from debtors with treats was overwhelming. It became so bad I changed my phone number. First of all, I am a praying woman and I never stopped praying and believing that things would turn around. I asked God to send me the resources, the knowledge, and the tools to handle my life, my debt and my responsibilities. 6 years later I got a decent job and decided to contact my debtors to make payment arrangements. What I found out was that the interest, sur charges and fees had made most of my debt double and in some cases triple. Although I did my best to make small payments there was clearly no way I was ever going to get on top of it all. I continued paying minimum payments and the interests continued to compound. But I also continued praying. Well I decided to find a way to consolidate things and began to research and seek out assistance. I did not consider bankruptcy as for some reason I did not think I would qualify. I had also heard of many scams where people charged large fees and disappeared. I met such a person who was very interested in helping at a very large fee but also made it clear that I would have to do a lot of work with absolutely no guarantees I would be able to reach agreements with my debtors. I could barely make my monthly payments plus live so how was I going to pay $3000 and then end up in more debt. I became disheartened again. I then decided to use my work referral program. The first 3 attorney's I spoke with over the phone all gave me the same spiel. Large fees with no guarantees. Mr. Greenberg was the last referral I was going to try. To my amazement he was refreshingly kind, understanding and spoke in a way I could understand. He told me to come and see him so we can go over all my debt in detail and then see what options I had. I felt a feeling of peace after this phone call. When we met Mr. Greenberg did exactly what he said he would do. He reviewed my situation, he did not do the fast talk with legal ease that I could not understand. He reviewed my debt and then he spoke words that I had not heard or imagine I would hear. He said I had a clear-cut case for bankruptcy and that my debt was eligible for discharge. I told him I did not believe it but would listen to what he had to say. He then proceeded to carefully and slowly explain why I was eligible and how the process would work. He explained step by step what I should expect and what paperwork I would have to provide. He answered my every question and at the end he guaranteed me that my case would be discharged. I walked away in disbelieve and that night I cried with relief. This was the first moment in 8 years i felt a peaceful feeling come over me. I knew God had answered my prayers. Mr. Greenberg said how awful it must be to be in my situation and said I deserved to a fresh start at a normal life. He said my daughter deserved this as well. He really cared. We filed in June and every single process and procedure he said would happen, HAPPENED. He prepared me with knowledge, paperwork, guidance and he told me what questions I would be asked and how to answer them. Today, October 4th, I received my discharge paperwork. I have a fresh start and a new life ahead me thanks to Mr. David Greenberg. He is absolutely wonderful and trustworthy and he cares. I have hope again and I plan to make better choices.
