About this directory
Every professional listed here is a licensed CPA, Enrolled Agent, or tax attorney and an active member of the Tax Resolution Academy®. Nobody buys their way onto this list, and nobody buys a higher position on it.
How listings are ordered
Search results are sorted in this order, and each rule only breaks ties left by the one above it.
- Certified Taxpayer Representative™ holders first
- Then by membership level within the Academy
- Then by how close the professional is to you
- Then by how long they have been a member
- Then alphabetically by last name
What CTR™ means
Certified Taxpayer Representative™ is a designation awarded by the Tax Resolution Academy®. Earning it requires completing a full curriculum in IRS representation, documenting real casework, and passing an examination. It is not a government license and it is not awarded by the IRS. It indicates specific training in collections, examination, and appeals rather than in tax preparation alone.
Reviews
Reviews come from a professional's own clients, through a private link the professional sends them. Every review is read before it appears. Reviews are published with the client's first name, last initial, and general location, never their full name or address.
What this directory is not
It is not a referral service and it is not an endorsement of any individual. It does not rate professionals against each other. It does not accept payment for placement. Reaching out to someone here does not create a client relationship, and nothing on this site is tax or legal advice.
For tax professionals
Listing is a free benefit of Academy membership. Members create a profile and it is reviewed by hand before it goes live.
