Running a business comes with enough challenges—tax audits shouldn’t be one of them. If your company in Carlsbad or the surrounding areas has claimed the Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERTC), you might be concerned about the possibility of an IRS audit. With increased scrutiny from the IRS, it’s more important than ever to ensure your documentation is airtight and your claim is defensible. At Coomber Law, we’re more than just a law firm—we’re your trusted partners in tax law, here to guide you through the complexities of ERTC audits with confidence and clarity.
In response to fraudulent claims and misinterpretations of eligibility, the IRS has ramped up its auditing efforts on ERTC filings. Many businesses, especially those that relied on third-party advisors to file their claims, are now receiving audit notices questioning their eligibility. The process can feel overwhelming, but having the right legal team on your side can make all the difference.
At Coomber Law, we specialize in helping businesses navigate IRS audits—particularly those related to ERTC claims. We understand the nuances of the tax code and how to position your case for the best possible outcome.
A Thorough Review of Your ERTC Claim: If you’re being audited, the first step is to review your ERTC filing in detail. We’ll analyze the calculations, supporting documentation, and the basis for your claim to ensure everything is in compliance with IRS guidelines.
Direct Representation with the IRS: Dealing with the IRS can be stressful, but you don’t have to do it alone. We handle all communication with the IRS on your behalf, responding to requests, submitting necessary documentation, and advocating for your business.
Strengthening Your Defense: The IRS is particularly focused on how businesses determined their eligibility for the credit. We’ll ensure that your documentation supports your claim and, if necessary, help you strengthen your case with additional records and legal arguments.
Mitigating Potential Liabilities: If any issues arise in your audit, we’ll work to minimize penalties, interest, or repayment amounts. In some cases, we can negotiate a resolution with the IRS that protects your business from excessive financial strain.
