A boutique tax law firm advising on charitable giving, resolving federal tax disputes, and finding tax debt solutions.
At K. Tyson Law, we provide tax counsel to individuals and appraisers, and also law firms, charities, and other entities. We serve clients nationwide, with a particular emphasis on advising on the tax aspects of charitable giving, and resolving disputes with the IRS, including civil tax penalties.
Our attorneys each have over 20 years of experience with the IRS, and specifically, issues related to charitable giving and federal tax resolution, controversy, and advice. Our team litigated for the IRS, provided written guidance for the public on charitable donations, and advised top IRS executives on cutting-edge issues and significant cases, written examination procedures and training materials on penalties, reasonable cause defenses, penalty abatement provisions, and charitable donations. We also have experience with tax claims in bankruptcy.
We handle a wide range of cases, from simple to complex from the examination stage, to resolution efforts in mediation and at the IRS Independent Office of Appeals, and, in the rare case when resolution does not work out, to litigating the cases.
Our team has extensive experience as IRS attorneys working with donations of conservation easements and art and other charitable giving matters (including the reporting requirements, substantiation requirements, and appraisal requirements). We also handle tax litigation, civil tax penalties, and tax debt solutions.
Reach out to us if you receive an IRS notice such as a civil penalty notice, a 30-day letter, a notice of deficiency, a notice of intent to levy, a notice of lien, or a final partnership adjustment, whether it is a corporate or partnership issue or an issue specific to individuals.

“I really liked working with Karin because she was very dedicated to getting the legally correct answer and was fun to work with. Would be happy to work with Karin and Kim again.”
“I could not be happier. I appreciated that Kim took the time to personally call me and explain the process and my options on resolving my tax issues as it was all so confusing to me. And getting this resolved so quickly took an enormous amount of stress off of me. I’m so thankful for all she did to help me.”
“So glad you and Karin are enjoying private practice! I hope your clients realize how lucky they are!”
