  I had some tax questions and wasn't sure who to speak with. I called multiple tax attorneys and I was told they couldn't help and didn't know who to refer me to. Sean O’Connor had no problem answering all my questions in a quick call and actually even told me I could probably handle my concerns on my own. He went on to give me advice on how to proceed with my concerns. He was extremely knowledgeable. And, to spend the time, when I am not even an established client is remarkable. This kind of generosity and integrity is priceless. I will definitely be reaching out to his him for any future tax needs. Thank you Sean!

  As a result of a divorce settlement, my daughter was given title to the family house. Unfortunately, the title transfer was tied up in an appeal.
  
  While in appeal, her spouse failed to pay income taxes resulting in State and Federal tax liens on the property. We contacted one of the more prominent tax relief services. They were very encouraging, took our money, but failed to deliver.
  
  We were about to give up when we decided to give it one more try. Through a web search, we learned about O'Connor & Lyon, LLP. Their web site said they had extensive experience in tax law. They were also located in CT where my daughter lives. The tax liens on the property were both State and Federal.
  
  We called Attorney Lyons and discussed the situation. He was very encouraging and thought we had a good case for tax relief. Havng gone through this before, we were skeptical but decided to try again, this time retaining Attorney Lyons.
  
  After gathering background information on the divorce settlement, IRS communications and the like, Attorney Lyons drafted a letter to the IRS requesting relief. It was extremely well-written. The letter went point-for-point through the timeline of the divorce, the tax debt, and the basis upon which the IRS should grant relief. Although we did not know what would be the final outcome, our skepticism was lessened. We felt Attorney Lyons had grasped the situation and made the best case possible for relief.
  
  Our opinion was confirmed when the IRS approved full relief. We could not be more pleased with the professionalism, expert tax knowledge, and speed with which Attorney Lyons handled this case. The fees were most reasonable. O'Connor and Lyons felt more like a concierge service rather than a run-of-the-mill tax relief service. I would strongly recommend O'Connor and Lyons for anyone seeking tax relief.

  I had the pleasure of working with Attorney Bob Lyon for my taxes this year and fully trust all his recommendations when preparing my taxes. Bob is very knowledgeable, professional and efficient and is always takes the time to explain things in a clear, concise way. I highly recommend O'Connor & Lyon for all your tax needs and recommend them to all my family and friends as well. We have peace of mind knowing nothing was overlooked and will continue to use O'Connor and Lyon for years to come!

  I have spoken to Mr. Lyon regarding 2 separate issues. The first issue I spoke to a number of other firms and did a lot of reading online and just couldn't grasp what they were telling me, it just wasn't making sense. I finally spoke to Mr. Lyon, he listened, asked questions, and just let us get it all out. He was empathic throughout and once we were done, he gave us his opinion and although we didn't like, we knew it was what we had to do. His knowledge and experience were obvious. Not only did it make sense, but he also gave us a clear avenue on how to proceed that we felt was the best for our situation. I even had other firms contact me after the fact and after I restated what I learned from Mr. Lyon that literally had them hanging the phone up on me, after they promised they can save me a ton of money. That led to another year and another issue. Mr. Lyon was the first and only person we called, and it was the same again. He listened, he asked questions, and he was empathetic to the stressfulness of the situation. In the end, he said he could help but didn't think it was worth it. His opinion was that it was about a 10% chance that would get what we wanted and that if we wanted to move forward it was up to us. The honesty and integrity are why I will never call anyone else. Mr. Lyon and his firm showed me that they truly want to help.

  I have had the pleasure of working directly with Attorney Lyon and Attorney O’Connor as a paralegal for over 5 years. I've known them to exemplify integrity, knowledge, and competence. They provide their clients with honest insight and assessment of their situation, and will work diligently to obtain the best possible result based on the facts and circumstances they are presented with, within the applicable rules and laws of the IRS. I am happy to recommend O'Connor and Lyon LLP, and would personally put my own trust in them to handle any tax matter.
