Daniel Wilbur Layton

I consulted with Mr. Layton regarding my inquiry with matters related to 18 U.S. Code § 1001. He proved to be not only genuinely concerned and thoughtful with regards to my situation, but very knowledgeable as well. The information he provided to me was invaluable, for sure. I would strongly advise c...onsulting with him should the need arise.

I hired Mr. Layton to help me out of a terrible tax problem due to my husband. I was so nervous and scared on our first meeting. He was so professional and understanding. Daniel Layton explained how the process of filing an Innocent Spouse claim worked. It took some time but I won my case. I can’t th...ank him enough !!

Stunned by my tax audit for 2009-2011 and shocked by the incompetence of the accountant/enrolled agent recommended by my tax software company which led to the IRS seizing all my incomein 2015, I scrambled to find an attorney to protect my interests. I reviewed the experience of 4 attorney's and 3 ...accounts before seeking a consultation. Daniel's strong academic background along with his extensive work for the IRS, in one of it's most difficult divisions, was a part of why I selected him. When we met, his ability to listen and understand made it easy my choice easy. Additionally he is extremely kind. From May of 2015 to July 2015 read every IRS regulation regarding my case. While i was reading Daniel put together the "Dream Team" an incredible accountant who went through every recorded transaction, a retired IRS Supervisor of 34 years who has been on speaking tour, and an IRS agent from the IRS's Special Division "Taxpayer Advocate". In 1 week he filed all the necessary paperwork to stop the IRS seizure of income, and by mid July 2018 he began the entire reconstruction of those 3 tax years. Rather than making an offer in compromise he was able to prove 100% that i had not "under reported" my income and thus clearing me from the IRS's special list of people they audit on a more regular basis. More importantly i had been doing my own taxes for 35 years but got into a complex situation because I had started a new company and thought i had the time to manage the new business and do my taxes. I since have learned although I had a lot of experience I needed to have tax experts in my corner. As a physician providing services to our community, I can't thank Daniel and our "Dream Team" enough for the simple reason that he helped protect me now and when I retire so I can continue to do my work for you and our community of loved ones, family and friends. Daniel in essence gave me, and my family, my life back. The reimbursement i paid to Daniel and his team were at exteremly reasonable rates and quite honestly Daniel was very sensitive to keep his rates low and always made sure his time was spent to reduce my tax consequence while being in full compliance with the law. I, in my practice of medicine, have come accross some of the highest and most respected and ethical women and men in the field. None of them exceed those qualties Daniel has and it appears has practiced his entire life. I must recommend him with the highest honors and respect I can give him. He is a great person who with humility and integrity saved my life!

I am in-house counsel for a property management company. The IRS sent us on a tax claim matter. We had never used Mr. Layton before, but decided to give his practice a try. Dealing with the IRS never a pleasant experience, but Mr. Layton did do a very competent job. What I liked the most about workin...g with him is his level of communication. As in-house counsel, I have to deal often with outside counsel. Some are not so good about communicating the status of the case or what the strategy should be in light of new events. Mr. Layton, however, was exceptional, as I found him to be quite proactive and conscientious about keeping the client up to date. Because of his high level of attentive communication, I did not have to worry that my case was being handled in a competent manner. I would definitely use him again, if another tax matter arose.
