IRS Representation

You Don't Have to Face the IRS Alone.

An IRS audit, penalty notice, or tax court summons is not a situation where general legal knowledge is enough. It demands an attorney who understands the tax code at the level of an accountant — and who has the direct IRS relationships to navigate the process strategically.

Chelsea Rebeck is one of very few Michigan attorneys who holds a JD, an active CPA license, and an LLM in Taxation — giving clients a decisive edge in every IRS matter.

From the moment you receive an IRS notice, time matters. The options available to you narrow quickly. The sooner experienced counsel is engaged, the more leverage you have — and the better your outcome.
