Philosophy

Not all cannabis businesses benefit from tax litigation. As the taxpayers in Green Solution found out too late, tax litigation headed by aggressive trial attorneys can yield unfavorable outcomes.

These arguments are familiar to us. Over the last several years, multiple Colorado marijuana dispensaries have challenged the IRS’s ability to investigate and impose tax consequences upon them. Those dispensaries have been represented by the same attorneys that are representing the dispensaries fighting the summonses in this case. The dispensaries have lost every time… The same result is warranted here.

In some cases, traditional tax resolution strategies can yield predictable outcomes that are more cost-effective than tax litigation.
