Colorado Tax Attorney | Alderman Law Firm

Tax law can be confusing and aggressive enforcement by agencies can impose serious financial burdens. At Alderman Law Firm, we protect clients’ rights when facing tax assessments, IRS disputes, and appeals—combining legal insight, appellate training, and client-focused advocacy.


Tax Representation Services

We offer representation in matters such as:

  • IRS audits and examinations
  • Notices of deficiency and disallowed deductions
  • State tax assessment disputes
  • Collection actions (liens, levies, garnishments)
  • Penalty abatement and interest challenges
  • Tax appeals in IRS administrative proceedings and federal appeals

Understanding Tax Appeals

A tax appeal contests an adverse decision from the IRS or state tax agency. The appeal focuses on legal or procedural errors—not new evidence. Depending on the case, appeals may move to the U.S. Tax Court or federal appellate courts where constitutional, statutory, or regulatory mistakes are challenged.


How Alderman Law Firm Works for You

Our approach is strategic and straightforward:

  1. Start with a comprehensive review of your tax matter, including any audit material or assessment notices.
  2. Identify possible legal claims—such as improper procedure, misinterpretation of tax law, or agency overreach.
  3. Draft and file protests, appeals, or administrative responses with clarity and authority.
  4. When appeals are warranted, represent you in briefs, oral arguments, or federal appeals.
  5. Throughout, maintain transparent communication, with fees structured to offer predictability where possible.

We apply our appellate experience and legal precision to tax disputes, building arguments that center on legal logic and procedural correctness.
