Income Tax Preparation

Park Ridge Income Tax Preparation Attorneys

Our lawyers assist individuals and businesses in the preparation of federal and state income returns, estate and gift tax returns. We also advise clients in income tax planning to reduce your tax bite. We handle returns for clients ranging from individuals with average incomes, to business owners, to a client who at one time was number 29 on the Forbes 100 list of wealthiest individuals.

We offer an exceptionally capable and experienced staff. Firm founder John Pembroke was the senior income tax attorney in a 50-lawyer firm in downtown Chicago and advised clients ranging from small businesses to Fortune 500 companies on domestic and international matters. For his clients, John has obtained tax refunds that exceeded the amount required for approval by a subcommittee of Congress ($250,000). Like John, associate attorney Erin Joseph Dulce is a certified public accountant in addition to being a lawyer. Paralegal Cindy Del Medico, who inputs the raw data on income tax returns, is a professor at a local community college and was a bank examiner for nine years.

You can have access to all of that experience for the fee we charge to do an annual income tax return. Based on your prior year's return, we can tell you what it will cost this year. Our rates are competitive with suburban Chicago accounting firms which do income tax preparation.

There are several advantages in using a lawyer to do your taxes. If there are tax disputes or controversies with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) or a state taxing authority, we can represent you not only in tax court but also in higher courts. You also have an attorney-client privilege which applies to oral communications between you and your lawyer.

We are also happy to represent you in any audit or other tax controversy.

We invite you to contact income tax preparation attorney John Pembroke to schedule a consultation.
