Thank you Mr. Greenberg!

I first reached out to Mr. Greenberg six years ago, and from day one, he supported me with honesty, integrity, and the kind of care you'd expect from someone truly in your corner. He has an exceptional ability to bring clarity and peace of mind to even the most stressful tax situations. I can't recom...mend him highly enough--Douglas is the kind of trusted professional you want on your side. If you're facing any tax concerns, don't hesitate--run, don't walk--to Mr. Greenberg. He's helped me once again in a time of real need, and I'm incredibly grateful.

Unbelievable Communication, Sensitivity, and Competence

It's hard to express just how lucky I feel for having chosen Doug to handle my IRS tax issues. Doug is not only professional and knowledgeable, but his communication is exceptional. I was overwhelmed when I received a massive and incorrect stock-options-related bill from the IRS -- one that thr...eatened to devastate my finances indefinitely. It was so daunting that I struggled to even fully read it. Fortunately, I mustered the courage to reach out to Doug on Yelp. Replying within hours, he calmed my fears, mentioning his familiarity and success with such cases. Working with him was both comforting and seamless. He was readily accessible for any inquiries, big or small, usually answering calls directly. Doug was even open to incorporating my suggestions into our dealings with the IRS. The outcome of working with him was as successful as promised, if not more. The issue was completely resolved!

Great Tax Attorney

I have known Doug for a number of years, he and I attended Georgetown Law together. Doug has always been passionate about tax and for my tax problems I would not go anyplace else. Douglas is knowledgeable, honest, and goes above and beyond the call of duty when I have a tax problem. My highest rec...ommendation.

"I have known Doug for ten years, since he and I were classmates at Georgetown Law. Doug has an exceptional legal mind, and a creative outside-the-box way of looking at complicated legal matters. I've heard him describe his philosophy as "making something complicated into something easy" for the client, something I believe all lawyers should strive to do. His results in tax cases have been outstanding. I would recommend him to anyone."
