I know how your opponent thinks: I spent a decade representing the Canada Revenue Agency. Able to anticipate and counter the tax authorities' position, I know what it takes to convince them to settle your case.
Analytical and detail oriented, I am skilled at building, organizing and presenting evidence that supports my client's story. Then, I draw convincing analogies and distinctions from relevant case law, arguing how the law should apply in my client's situation.
I developed my skills by learning from great lawyers, reflecting on what works and what doesn't, trying new techniques and lots of practice. I have been counsel on over one hundred tax cases covering a variety of tax issues and have conducted over thirty trials with witnesses.
I will learn your case inside out. Every time I speak with the tax authorities, I am ready to put forth your position. Every question in my examination is designed to advance your case.

Based on your needs, goals, and the facts of your unique case.
I will take over dealing with the tax authorities on your behalf.
You will be able to go back to doing what you do best, while I do what I do best.
We will communicate and collaborate throughout the process.
This is your case. I will make sure that I understand it and I present it true to your vision.
Your best case will be put forward.
Your case will be built on a foundation of strong legal reasoning skills and outside the box thinking.
You will obtain a resolution to your tax issue.
And return to focusing on the things that matter to you.
My mission is to empower you in the exercise of your rights and to resolve the tax issue that burdens you, so that you can continue to pursue the things in your life that matter to you.
