I have been attempting to contact the IRS and have not been able to get through regarding an important matter that has a deadline. I contacted O'Connor & Lyon and they scheduled me promptly for a telephone consultation the following today. Attorney Lyon was highly informative and courteous. He took the time to guide me through the process, discussed various options, and possible outcomes. His advice was sound and I felt confident to follow through with his help. I will call this law firm again if I ever need any help.

This is a long overdue and well deserved review. I am beyond satisfied with the representation I have received from Attorney Lyon and Attorney O'Connor on mulptiple federal and state tax issues. Dealing with the IRS is inherenlty stressful and frustrating, and trying to find the proper legal representation can be equally as difficult. Attorney Lyon explained my case, provided clearity on the details and discussed a plan of action to acheive a resolution to my tax matter. He then executed his plan to acheive the most favorable result for me! Often times it seemed he knew the laws/rules better than the IRS did! I would 100% recommend this firm to anyone struggling with difficult tax issues or simply looking for tax preparation services.

I have been using O'Connor & Lyon for several years now to help me with my annual tax returns. They make the process so easy to do, they are efficient, and charge a very fair price. I highly recommend contacting O'Connor & Lyon for your tax needs!

Not very friendly or useful.

Response from owner

In response to a written inquiry, Jake was informed in a professional and courteous manner that his situation is not one handled by our firm. That's it. We do not believe this warrants a 1-star review.

I had a few employment tax questions and called several law offices to try and get some answers....Attorney Bob answered the phone and was extremely helpful (even though it was not his area of expertise), patient and thorough. I would absolutely recommend him and use this law office in the future!

Response from owner

Jamie, thank you for your kind review.

I contacted Bob regarding a huge but erroneous state tax assessment. He said he'd starting working on it immediately, and he meant it! He got in touch with the state revenue office and had everything fixed and the whole matter settled within a few hours of my first call with him. Very impressive performance. Highly recommended.

Response from owner

Thanks for the review, Russell. Glad we could get things resolved for you quickly.

Thank you so much Sean O'Connor and Robert Lyon were both absolutely incredible to work with. I had the opportunity to consult with both of them and they just picked up the phone and really went into depth with me and my situation, asking me important and detailed questions, and even went out of their way to dig into the way the law was worded to see what would and wouldn't apply to me specifically. My call with each of them probably lasted an hour and offered the initial consultation and fully helping me understand and gave me advice on how to approach the situation without needing to charge me. Thank you so so much! Thank you so much

Response from owner

Thank you for the thoughtful review. We sincerely appreciate your feedback.

Attorney O'Conner was very through in helping me with the US side of the treaty between USA / Swiss.

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!

Response from owner

Thank you. We're glad we were able to provide some insight regarding your situation.

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.

Response from owner

John,<br><br>Thank you for the kind review. We're glad we were able to help you navigate the lien issues.

Not all heros wear capes! 🦸🏻‍♂️ I recieved more help from this firm in one phone call than I did in 2 weeks of calls to my state rep. Professional, down to earth, and VERY knowledgeable on taxes and the IRS!! Not to mention after a few mins on the phone you feel like you're talking to an old friend. Thank you again!

I talked with Sean on the phone about a few simple tax situations that I ran into after I moved abroad. He was friendly and answered my questions with ease.

Until you have talked to this particular expert, you don’t know what you’re missing. He’s armed with a sophisticated understanding of tax consequences, and knows how to patiently lay it all out there. He’s got a genuinely generous heart to go along with it. Give him a call. If he can’t help you, he’s sure to give you a tip or two on which direction might be helpful.

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!

Their website says “When you call us, you’ll reach us” and I was so grateful to reach Mr. O’Connor when I called on a Monday morning seeking an answer to a question about taxable services - and I called in early April, at the height of income tax prep season! I appreciated the knowledgeable and thorough explanation I was given, and Mr. O’Connor’s patience and kindness with helping me sort my question out! Thanks so much.
