Tax Lawyers in Los Angeles, California

Los Angeles keeps its tax matters close to home, and so does this registry. What follows is the Los Angeles County record for anyone researching a tax attorney, indexed from official State Bar records.

The law also keeps time: the IRS generally has three years from filing to assess additional tax; the FTB has four (Cal. Rev. & Tax. Code § 19057) under 26 U.S.C. § 6501. Substantial omissions double the federal window to six years (26 U.S.C. § 6501(e)); no return or fraud means no limit. A Tax Court petition must follow a notice of deficiency within 90 days (26 U.S.C. § 6213). The plaque below carries the citation; the roster and questions that follow carry the rest.

This page is the Los Angeles chapter of the registry's statewide record · Tax Lawyers in California collects every county and city.

Reading the roster in Los Angeles. Tax controversy is a paper-and-deadline practice: bring every notice, with dates, to a first consultation, because appeal windows (90 days for Tax Court, 60 for an FTB protest) drive everything. Look for attorneys who practice before the IRS, FTB, EDD, and CDTFA regularly, ask whether your matter is an audit defense, a collection resolution, or litigation, and confirm who (attorney, CPA, or enrolled agent) will handle each stage. Attorney-client privilege is a genuine differentiator when fraud exposure is possible.
