The IRS tried for years to collect a very large balance of taxes I had not been able to pay. Darby and his team sorted this out quickly and effectively by intervening with the IRS on my behalf. My tax bill was settled for good, and I paid pennies on the dollar in the agreement initiated by Darby. I highly recommend using this very professional and reliable firm for settling tax issues.

When I first learned about new tax laws affecting our retirement investments and documents, our…read morefinancial planner recommended that my wife and I visit Kent Shipley to have our documents reviewed and updated. Kent started out as a CPA specializing in tax accounting, but added to his education and practice with his law degree. With both disciplines, he has gone on to specialize in estate and trust planning. We simply brought in our old documents and discussed our wishes along with the impact of the new laws. We had a few follow up communications and then a final one to sign our documents. Throughout the process, we were pleased with his professionalism as well as his friendly manner. Though he now specializes in trust and estate planning (including wills, powers of attorney, etc), his son has joined the office to handle the tax accounting. I also used his son's expertise to file an amended tax return. I am not sure if they require recommendations for new clients or not, but you definitely need to schedule an appointment to get in for either service. If you have anyone who depends upon you and you've begun building up assets for retirement, make sure that you have your documents in order to carry out your wishes and not leave your loved ones to have to figure it out/fight over what to do. We are very satisfied with knowing that if anything happens to either one of us, dealing with problems will be much easier having chosen Kent Shipley to put our documents in order. Review #3759

I really wish I could add 5 more stars. This is a little late but I had to write this to let you…read moreknow how Happy and thankful our family is for Ben Lowry. We needed help immediately to help with moms property and finances. We were clueless. I contacted a few attorneys but was not satisfied. After seeing their Ad on the billboard, I called and talked to Ben. I was so amazed at how kind and easy he was to talk with. He eventually conferenced with my mom and brother and they were very comfortable talking with him. Mom has Alzheimers and Ben was so patient in explaining things to her. He was never rushed or annoyed, sometimes repeating things a few times. Ben always took our calls and returned our calls when we left messages. He offered different solutions to our issue and explained each in great detail. He completed everything expeditiously and keep us informed every step of the way. My family is so greatful for Ben and the Lowry firm. It was truly a pleasure meeting and working with him. He's so easy to talk with, it was like talking to a friend. I highly recommend The Lowry firm to anyone in need of elder law. God bless you Ben and THANK YOU so much for everything. Kimberly Miles and family.

I had to write this review of Ben Lowry. I was looking for an attorney to handle an estate when my…read morefriend referred me to Ed Lowry. I called the office during lunch, and Ben Lowry answered the phone. I ask for Ed Lowry, and he was out of town for a week. I wanted to get this started, and Ben said he could help me. My consultation went well, but I was a little reluctant as he is a young attorney, but wanting to get started I signed off. Let me tell you he was fabulous. He guided me every step of the way, when, and how to do everything timely. All details were handled top notch, and I would recommend him to anyone. He knows the law, and how to see that it is followed, and give you peace of mind that it is done correctly. If you want a top notch professional to handle your probate, wills, and estate planning don't hesitate. You will be glad you did.

Second, Mr. Healey was out of town but filed my taxes while he was waiting for an appointment, literally was done about one hour after I contacted him. His online portal is very convenient. He was quite cordial and professional on the phone, too. I am very satisfied with his performance! Highly recommended!

I hired Dennis Healy to handle my tax filings and S-Corp election. Errors in the filing process…read moreresulted in IRS penalties and interest for 2021 and 2022. To correct the issue, I had to hire another professional to file appeals and work directly with the IRS. Dennis paid the invoice for that corrective work, which ultimately resulted in the IRS granting a one-time penalty abatement for 2021. However, when the IRS declined to waive the 2022 penalties (because a prior abatement had already been granted), Dennis refused to reimburse the second round of penalties and related costs. Resolving this matter has taken years of additional correspondence, expense, and stress. I would strongly recommend ensuring clear follow-through and accountability when working with any tax professional. it's still ongoing to this day and I'm stuck with disputing close to $5000 on penalties due to his negligence.
