How to Choose the Right Tax Planning Specialist: The Importance of Experience and Due Diligence

If you are facing a complicated tax problem, one of the keys to solving it is choosing the right tax planning specialist or tax attorney. But with so many options out there, how do you know which one is the best fit for your needs? Experience is a crucial factor to consider. You want to work with someone who has a track record of success and a wealth of knowledge in their field. But how can you determine if a specialist truly has the experience they claim? This is where due diligence comes in. By thoroughly researching a specialist's background, qualifications, and feedback from other respected tax professionals, you can gain a more accurate picture of their expertise. In this blog post, we'll delve into why experience matters and how you can conduct effective due diligence to find the ideal tax planning specialist or tax attorney for your specific needs.

The Importance of Experience: Why It Matters in Choosing a Tax Planning Specialist

Experience is one of the keys to choosing an ideal tax planning specialist or tax attorney to solve a complicated tax problem. You must take the time to thoroughly check their background, experience and expertise in order to ensure that you are getting the best advice possible. 

Not only should you look into whether they have been recognized by peers or the community as being best in class, but also look for any qualifications or achievements which demonstrate their competence in their field of work.  Do they provide continuing education in their field of expertise to tax professionals?  What has been the feedback from other respected tax professionals with whom they have worked with in the past?  How do they handle challenges and adversity?  The more past experience the specialist has had with audit and tax court, the better prepared they should be to avoid those risks and issues in the future.  

On the surface, it’s easy to position a “specialist” as an expert, but they can only go as far as their learning and experience takes them.  The more data points, the better the qualify of due diligence, but who has the time to complete this arduous process of identifying and choosing the best in class? 

This is why revolutionary due diligence requires independent feedback from as many qualified professionals as possible, who can testify to the quality of experience working with that potential specialist.  

If that specialist has worked with many CPAs and Attorneys in the past, their cumulative, independent feedback about that specialist is extremely useful to ranking and rating the quality of this specialist relative to their competitors. This is what the www.duediligenceproject.com does on behalf of its community of hundreds of elite tax planning professionals.  

When searching for a best-in-class attorney or specialist, always keep their experience at the forefront of your thoughts. If they have been vetted by many other tax professionals, providing more data points to consider, will only refine the quality of the overall due diligence and create more confidence in making the ultimate decision of whom to trust.

In conclusion, when it comes to solving a complicated tax problem, experience is key. By choosing a tax planning specialist or tax attorney with a proven track record, thorough background, and positive feedback from other respected professionals, you can feel more confident in your decision. Additionally, conducting independent due diligence can help you gain valuable insights into a specialist's competence and performance.
