Employee Retention Credit (ERC) Services
The Employee Retention Credit (ERC) is a federal tax break designed to reward businesses that kept their staff on the payroll during the pandemic. While the deadline to submit for this tax break has passed, many business owners are still dealing with ERC issues, like audits and denials. There have also been problems with some Professional Employer Organizations (PEOs) that filed for the credit on behalf of their clients. We'll look at these issues in detail below.

The rules for resolving ERC disputes can feel overwhelming because the IRS has updated its guidance multiple times. That’s why having an experienced legal team in your corner is so important when dealing with high-value tax credits. Call Frost Law AZ, LLC at (602) 649-3887 or fill out our contact form to set up a consultation about your Employee Retention Credit issues.
ERC Audits and Disallowances
The IRS has increased its audits of ERC claims to prevent fraud and errors. If you receive a notice that your claim is being audited, it doesn't necessarily mean you did anything wrong. However, you will need to provide detailed documentation to prove your business met the specific criteria for the credit. Our Arizona lawyers can help you organize your records and represent your interests during the audit process.
Another common ERC letter is a disallowance, or denial. This may seem like the end, but you generally have the right to appeal the decision. As with an audit, you'll need to ensure that your paperwork supports your claim. The team at Frost Law AZ, LLC will work to build a strong case showing why you are entitled to receive the Employee Retention Credit.
ERC Litigation
Some Employee Retention Credit disputes can't be settled through simple conversations or administrative appeals. Perhaps the government's delay in processing your ERC claim has caused an undue hardship on your business. Or maybe a Professional Employer Organization filed the ERC claim for you but isn't keeping you updated—or worse, is withholding the refund. Some of these organizations fraudulently promised refunds to businesses that weren't eligible for the ERC credit.
In these instances, we recommend contacting experienced legal professionals. At Frost Law AZ, LLC, we'll explore a variety of legal remedies, including litigation, to get your refund. If you were misled by a PEO and paid them a fee or a percentage of your credit, we'll try to get it back. We're here to provide the guidance and legal support to get all of the money that you deserve.
