Reuben G. Muller is a member in the firm’s Tax, Trusts & Estates Department. 

 

Experience

Reuben represents clients at all stages of disputes with the Internal Revenue Service, the New Jersey Division of Taxation and the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance including audits, administrative appeals and tax litigation. Since 2009, Reuben has concentrated on the representation of individuals, businesses, and estates which seek to benefit from the Internal Revenue Service’s voluntary disclosure programs to minimize civil penalties and avoid criminal prosecution for unreported income and undeclared foreign assets. Reuben’s practice also includes representing clients who seek to address their outstanding liabilities for unpaid taxes and penalties through an offer in compromise, innocent spouse relief, and penalty abatement.

Before joining the firm, Reuben litigated tax disputes with a boutique tax controversy law firm in Bergen County. Reuben has experience handling estate and gift tax audits, as well as audits related to charitable contribution deductions and captive insurance arrangements.
