Frank was so helpful in explaining to all our family members the various options my parents had in preserving the equity value of their home from Medicaid and passing it on with the beneficial stepped up tax basis for us who will someday inherit the home. My parents opted for an irrevocable family trust which Frank established for us at a significant discount in fees from other attorneys we consulted with. Thank you for your patience and help Frank.

Tax Audit & Smooth Sailing Closing
A friend recommended Frank to my husband and me for an IRS tax audit that was not going well and was previously being handled by our accountant. Frank was able to reduce our liability to 1/3 of the assessment and was successful in obtaining a waiver of the penalties. He reorganized our business and advised of the proper tax reporting going forward to avoid further audits and penalties. We subsequently retain him for a real estate purchase closing that was smooth sailing.

Mr. Mulhern took my case as I did not know what to do. His wife even babysat my child while we attended an IRS hearing. We won. My assessment was gone. Thank you my friend.
-Lucille Z.
Frank was extremely helpful on our payroll and sales and use tax audits that were never ending before we retained him. Superb performance.
-Maxwell S.
Frank handled a complicated closing related to an estate with multiple owners from various states. Frank made us feel comfortable and kept us informed at all times and was patient with all of our concerns. He is a gentleman and a scholar.
-Rich Right
Frank took care of our purchase in Bergen County and sale in Rockland County and the many title issues we encountered with our sale. Frank minimized our stress and made us feel as relaxed as possible throughout the process. Highly recommended

Frank Mulhern helped me out a messy complex tax situation that my prior accountant got me and my business into. I could have saved a lot of time and money had I used his office earlier on. He got rid of 80% of my assessment along with the multitude of penalties. Thank You Frank

The three attorneys I spoke to prior to contacting Frank advised my wife and me that we would have to probate my father’s estate through the Surrogates Court before I could sell the home my dad left us. This proceeding would cost from $3000 to $5000 and could take up to a year before I could place my father’s home on the market for sale and we would then be hit with an additional closing fee of $1000 to $1500.
Through Frank’s hard efforts we were able to close on the home without having to go to court, thereby avoiding the expensive estate court proceeding and related attorney fees and the potential year wasted to place home on the market and Frank only charged us a reasonable closing fee.
Great work – thank you Frank

For only 20 years I have utilized Frank’s legal services from the probate of my father’s estate, the closing of my Manhattan coop, drafting of my will and my partner’s will, Medicaid planning for my elderly aunt. I have referred him to friends and family members who all have thanked me for the referrals. He is patient and a good guy that cares about his clients.
-Roger S
My wife and I are professional home flippers and the sole attorney that we settled on for our residential home purchases and sales in the NY & NJ areas has been Frank since we switched to him about 5 years ago. We are very happy with his services and he always seems to bring some new insight on each deal despite our own personal knowledge of the real estate industry. He is very reliable and trustworthy.

I switched to Mr. Mulhern’s firm after retaining a large tax firm that neglected my various tax issues with the IRS and Philippine tax authorities. Frank quickly resolved all issues in an amicable fashion that was to my satisfaction. I highly recommend him for corporate income, employment tax, transfer pricing and related cross-border matters.
-Jose P
I was told by several attorneys that it was virtually impossible to close on a NJ sale and a NY purchase on the same day but Frank was able to accomplish this for me and my wife without my wife or me even having to attend the Jersey closing. Frank took care of everything. He eliminated issues before they could develop and provided tax advice as well.
-Mike E
Frank was referred by a friend for our coop purchase in NYC. The Coop board of our building is notoriously difficult but Frank’s prior experience with the building helped to resolve the issues that arose. He was also more helpful than our bank and our tax accountant in answering and addressing our financing and tax concerns.
-Lou Forbo
Frank was as personable as he was professional in handling our closing. He took his time with us and answered questions that we could not get answers from elsewhere. He did a great job, is a very nice guy and charged a price that was fair to us. Thank you Frank.
-Luther Jackson
I am a CPA that has worked with and retained Frank’s services for the last 7 years on complex client tax planning, tax audit issues and litigation. If an issue or audit becomes too precarious for me and my clients, I can count on Frank to help us secure a successful outcome with fees that are more than reasonable. I strongly recommend Frank to any CPA that needs assistance in complex audits to avoid appeals and at the appeal or litigation level.
