We worked with David Coffin over the course of several months, solving an income tax problem and a federal employee tax problem. David worked tirelessly to solve this. First, let me say this about David - he never looked down on us for having this problem, never judged. Our liability was in the hundreds of thousands, and it was settled for significantly less than I ever imagined or hoped that it could be settled. David truly cared about our predicament. He was always in contact, we were never left hanging without knowing where we were in this journey. David is a true man of honor and integrity - I have the highest regard for this great man! I always felt like I had a FRIEND helping me through this. Don't look any farther for help. There is no one better!

Cannot say enough things about the caliber of expertise, customer service and professionalism this law firm offers. Both David and Alejo are excellent to work with. Alejo was an advocate on our behalf when there was a mistake made with our taxes - and he handled a complicated situation for us with ease. Highest of recommendations for this law firm and Alejo!

I contacted the office of David Coffin PLLC about a lingering tax situation. Very promptly, Alejo reached back out to discuss case. After gathering the facts, Alejo and his team began working to resolve the situation. I inquired if I needed to come to his office for "in person" sit down and he said it was not necessary, but if I prefer I was more than welcome. Many of my past experiences, the attorney always wants a meeting, hence costing time and money, but this was not the case here. All items were handled via e mail or a phone call. As there were a couple of key dates/deadlines, I did not have to remind them as they posted on their calendar and handled situations according to timeline. My case was resolved in a prompt and professional manner. I would highly recommend Alejo and the firm of David Coffin PLLC. Jason M

The David Coffin Law firm is the top of its field, I am a returning client and they have delivered the most professional service every time. They are very knowledgeable in the tax code and what it takes to get it done. Alejo handled my resent case and it all went just as he explained it to me from the beginning, and in the time frame he had told me. Thank you Alejo and team for getting me back on track.

David Coffin is an exceptional lawyer, and it has been a pleasure to work with him. Allen and Edith, his clients, were in a tough spot, having owed the IRS a substantial sum of money for almost a decade. David took on this case and negotiated a settlement with the IRS that was a real game-changer. Instead of repaying the entire debt, they only had to pay ten percent of it, which was a massive relief for the couple both financially and emotionally. David's dedication to his clients is inspiring. He is not one to nickel and dime his clients for every little service, which is a rarity in the legal world. He understands that financial strains can be caused by issues with the IRS, and he works to develop a plan that meets his clients' specific requirements and needs. David is an attorney that knows his clients and displays personal interest in their situations. In conclusion, I would highly recommend David and his firm to anyone looking for legal assistance with the IRS. His hard work, dedication, and thoroughness in developing personalized plans, along with his compassionate nature, make him an excellent choice for anyone in need. Clients like Allen and Edith can attest to the relief David's legal guidance provided.

I would most sincerely recommend this firm for any tax issues you are experiencing. Mr. A. Pacini managed my case, and the outcome exceeded anything I could imagine. Mr. Pacini is the consummate professional. He was punctual, accurate, relentless, honest and forthright. He never sugarcoated or embellished on any issue and was completely straight forward in resolving one of the most stressful situations my family has ever experienced. I would most definitely and wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Pacini and the David Coffin Law Firm for your tax situation. My wife and I feel extremely blessed to have found Mr. Pacini and the David Coffin Law Firm.

If it were not for David, my outcome with the IRS would not be what it is today. While the journey was long, David was there every step of the way. He was responsive, worked tirelessly through numerous delays and was able to get an offer in compromise that far exceeded my expectations. Thank you so much David!

I can't say enough good things about David Coffin. Tax issues can be very emotional as well as worrisome - and David provided support for us in every way. His knowledge of tax law is incredible, and that created a confidence in him from the very start. Our process took a couple of years to complete, and the outcome was as perfect as it could be. Had it not been for Davis Coffin, our financial future could have been ruined - but now we are able to move forward with peace. Thank you David!

Wow, so many good things we can say about this law firm but here?s just a few. David Coffin was kind enough to do a free consult and after having compared the results with other tax law firms, this was where we needed to be. It was a somewhat lengthy process since we were already in tax court when we hired them. But David was able to help us thru a very difficult process and we were delighted with the outcome. David is a kind compassionate man with the expertise in tax law we needed. Finding him to represent us was a blessing that couldn?t have come at a better time.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
