As an attorney and a former client of the Ben-Cohen Law Firm, I would highly recommend this firm to any individual or entity faced with domestic and foreign tax questions. Pedram has the expertise you can expect to get from a partner at a large law firm but with the personal care and genuine concern for the client that is very rare to find at any firm. He gives straightforward answers and presents the most cost-effective solutions to clients. Tax matters are never pleasant but with the Ben-Cohen Firm representing you, they are bearable!

My legal consultation with Pedram Ben-Cohen was absolutely first class. I wasn't sure whether I should go seek advice from a tax attorney or a CPA, but the fact that he is both proved to be very helpful. What was truly impressive about the meeting was he had done a lot of due diligence ahead of time and provided me with contacts and requisite forms regarding my issue. He has earned my trust with his professionalism, knowledge, and candor. I will definitely seek him out in the future for other tax-related matters.
Thank you Pedram for another quick, helpful and effective discussion. I can't move forward on a lot of my deals without your tax perspective and insight, and I appreciate that you always make the time for me and my clients!

I have worked with Pedram Ben Cohen for a number of years. He is a world class attorney with intimate knowledge of the complicated tangled web that is the US tax system. He is diligent, yet practical in his approach and is a deeply caring advocate for his clients. Whether it is a plain-vanilla tax audit or a complex off-shore reporting and compliance rules, and everything else in between, you could not ask for better representation.

Originally, I began working with Pedram Ben-Cohen six years ago to do my streamline taxes. Since then, I have contacted Pedram on many occasions where I needed help or advise. On ALL the aforementioned occasions, he was available to me and either helped me directly or referred me to someone that was able to help me. Pedram is very knowledgable CPA attorney. He is very detail oriented and cares about his clients. I have recommended him to several friends and family and I would recommend him to anyone reading this review. 5 stars is not enough, but that is all Google allowed me to select :-)

We find Mr Ben-Cohen to be very knowledgable and responsive, and always available when ever we needed him. There are very few professionals that are both CPAs and Lawyers, this had a huge impact in the way he was able to deal with our affairs so effectively.

About 5-6 years ago I retained Mr. Ben Cohen to handle a complicated tax matter for me in front of IRS and he did a great job! He saved me a lot of money in taxes and penalties. Ever since, he became a very trusted adviser and my only go to tax attorney! So far he has helped me with tax matters dealing with offshore accounts, real estates, small business, trust, and cryptocurrencies. I definitely recommend him!!!

Pedram advised me on state residency issues related to state taxes. He advised me very thoughtfully on how best to respond to a baseless assertion of tax liability by a state of which I was not, in fact, a resident. He later advised me on whether or not I should consider moving my residency, and the tax implications. In both situations, Pedram reviewed the materials I sent him in advance, immediately got to the main issues, and quickly pointed out errors I had made in my tax assumptions, so that the issues were clearly presented for me to consider. My discussions with Pedram were enjoyable, to the point, and productive. Pedram was also able to address many of my concerns via email, to use our time most efficiently. I highly recommend Pedram for legal consulting regarding tax issues.

I had an IRS audit and I did not have the time to deal with it myself. I was concerned having someone else handle my audit, but Pedram from Ben Cohen Law put my mind at ease from the beginning. Pedram is a knowledgeably and efficient tax lawyer that resolved my audit quickly with little effort from me. I refer to him with all my tax questions and recommend him to anyone looking for a tax attorney. I would definitely use him again in an event of an audit.

I had a consultation with Mr. Ben-Cohen regarding a Tax related issue that was causing me a great deal of concern and worry, due to my limited understanding of this topic and also due to a previous consultation with another tax attorney who offered an overly complex solution to what turned out to be a simple issue. I am extremely grateful that I have decided to consult with Mr. Ben-Cohen and I am also extremely thankful.

I am a CPA and have known and worked with Pedram on several rather involved, difficult, and demanding cases. I have found Pedram to be extremely knowledgeable when it comes to different tax issues. He is a great negotiator who has the ability to strongly challenge the taxing authorities on the most demanding issues and succeed.
Pedram is pragmatic in his approach. He is transparent with his clients and dedicated to getting to a fair and reasonable outcome. I have attended an IRS Appeals conference with Pedram and would want no other attorney on my side. Pedram is extremely passionate in his work and representing his clients. He is also enjoyable to work with and develops very good relationships with his clients and colleagues.

Recently I was in need to of a tax attorney to represent me. Being a former tax attorney myself, I had many attorneys to choose from. I ultimately asked Pedram to represent me not only because of his knowledge of tax law or his stellar reputation in the community, but because I truly felt like I had someone on my team that cared about the results. The outcome was beyond my expectations. When anyone contacts me for a professional referral to a tax attorney, Pedram Ben-Cohen is the only name I give them.

A few years ago I had a major tax problem and I was looking for the right professional tax lawyer. I interviewed at least five experts and all of them were very professional. I am very picky. When I met Mr. Pedram Ben-Cohen, it took me no more than five minutes to decide that he was the one, and I was absolutely right with my intuition. He is very professional, knowledgeable, smart, and knows his job perfectly. In addition to all of his professional skills, as a person he is very friendly, pleasant, ready to help, and took care of me like I was his own family. I referred and recommended him to friends and family with tax problems and will continue to do so warmly to anyone. I know that he is able and will do his job the best way for his clients. He is my personal tax lawyer and expert and will remain so.
