Tax Controversy Senior Associate or Counsel (Attorney)

A boutique tax firm with a nationally respected controversy practice is seeking a Senior Tax Controversy Associate with at least five years of direct experience handling federal and state tax disputes.

Role Overview

• Manage federal, state, and local tax audits
• Handle IRS and state administrative appeals
• Draft petitions, motions, and briefs in U.S. Tax Court and federal district court
• Develop strategies for resolving civil tax disputes, including Offers in Compromise and penalty issues
• Advise individuals and businesses on complex income, payroll, and sales tax matters
• Support cases involving tax credits and incentives

Qualifications

• 5 years of tax controversy or tax litigation experience
• Strong command of federal tax procedure and Tax Court practice
• Experience engaging with IRS and state taxing authorities
• Excellent research, writing, and advocacy skills
• Ability to manage matters independently while working closely with partners
• Practical, solution‑driven judgment

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• High‑impact work in a respected, specialized boutique
• Direct partner access and significant client interaction
• Complex, interesting matters without big‑firm bureaucracy
• Competitive compensation aligned with experience
