Max Benkel

“I can't thank Max Benkel enough. I can finally sleep at night because his experience, hard work and persistence with the IRS paid off. I was saddled with an incorrect IRS liability around $150,000 for almost 9 years. I tried to fight the IRS Machine by myself with no success. I called Max. He set up a no charge personal office consultation that day and reviewed my situation. He knew exactly how to handle the matter, the labyrinth of invisible people within the IRS to deal with, and eliminated the entire debt...”
"Mr. Benkel filed an offer in compromise on my behalf. Although my tax liability was over $1,000,000.00, Mr. Benkel obtained a settlement of $2,310.00. He did a great job and I couldn't be happier."
“In connection with my bankruptcy practice, I have had occasion to work with Max Benkel on numerous cases over the years. I have always been impressed with the thoughtfulness of his work and the success he has had in reaching very positive results for his tax clients. Consequently, I strongly encourage any individual or business with tax issues to consult with Mr. Benkel.”

“Max handled a matter for me and did an outstanding job. He was professional, thorough & efficient. I highly recommend him and will use his services again, should the need arise.”
