The Tax Lawyer’s Letter to IRS Commissioner Shulman on IRS Abuse of Right to Taxpayer Counsel

April 13th, 2009 · 3 Comments

I have finally completed the first draft of my letter to The Commissioner of Internal Revenue, Doug Shulman.

A complete copy is provided below.

See my previous post titled The Tax Lawyer to Petition IRS Commissioner re: Taxpayer Right to Representation for a discussion of what prompted me to write this letter.

I invite any taxpayers or tax professionals who have had similar experiences with IRS officials to give me their comments on the letter and suggestions for improvement.

The IRS’s routine failure to properly honor and respect a taxpayer’s right to representation undermines the very essence of what we as tax do.

Something must be done about it.
