Client Reviews

Exceptionally Knowledgeable Tax Representation. If you're experiencing tax issues and looking for an honest, skilled representative to work with the IRS (or the state), Mike Habib is a deeply experienced, unusually skillful, trustworthy AND kind human being. Mike worked with the IRS on my behalf when after a serious health issue I got behind on both filing and paying taxes. He helped me bring everything current and make an agreement with the IRS. He negotiated on my behalf and was determined to get me the best possible outcome. Additional, when I was freaking out, he was reassuring and also made clear what I could do on my own (and thus save money) and where I would benefit from his help. He does all this at very reasonable prices (and offers payment plans) and with complete integrity. I've also hired him do my annual tax preparation and that has been done promptly and well. I am so glad he does this work and highly recommend his help with tax filings and tax issues. I am exceptionally impressed with his expertise, and his clear, responsive communication. Most importantly, given the nature of this work? You could not go wrong with hiring Mike Habib to help you resolve your tax matters. He is capable, trustworthy and kind. Highly recommended.

I would give a billion stars to Mike Habib if I could! We filed an OIC with the IRS and settled successfully with zero issues (it took a year, no less - but that's thanks to the IRS being majorly backlogged). Mike knows his stuff so they didn't come back to me asking for any more paperwork than I initially provided with our application. What's more, I had initially reached out to a different tax attorney who told me it would not be possible. Thank you, Mike! Will be forever grateful to not have IRS issues hanging over us.

I had a multi-year, complex tax issue and Mike handled it professionally. He is very knowledgeable of the tax code as well as working with the IRS. He was very responsive and acted quickly. He is very reassuring and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend him.

Mike took my situation and turned it into a total win for my Family and I. I owed back taxes for several past returns totaling approximately $75,000. Mike, because of his expertise in US Tax Law helped me put together an Offer in Compromise that was accepted by the IRS for 10% of that amount. While others said that it couldn't be done, Mike proved them all wrong! THANKS MIKE !!

Mike Habib helped me with a large Tax liability of over 250,000 dollars. He was first able to get the IRS to pause their aggressive collection practices and get me a small monthly payment. Then after some time had passed, Mike negotiated an OIC ( Offer In Compromise ). With Mike's help I was able to settle for only 5000 dollars. No more sleepless nights. Mike Habib was always patient and reassuring. I would recommend Mike Habib to anyone who has a tax issue with the IRS.

From the beginning Mr. Habib understood how I felt with the unsettling feeling about being audited by the IRS. Mr. Habib worked with us along the way to make it a smooth transition. His expertise in his field immediately showed, and lead us to get amazing result. I"m truly grateful for Mr. Habib, and highly recommend his services to anyone in need.

Mike has given us peace of mind! He helped negotiate down a large balance and get us on a payment plan that we can afford with no worries! The stress of dealing with the IRS is huge and Mike helped us through it all. The peace of mind is invaluable, thank you Mike!

I would give him 10 stars if I could! He handled my audit for 2 years, very professionally. My audit was not even based in CA but he guided me to transfer the case to his district in CA. I must say he did come across from the very beginning as very competent and knowledgeable. You do not even have to meet with him face to face, I never did and my complicated case for 2 years of tax returns audit were resolved unchanged by IRS. He can handle your case wherever you are and being audited. His fees might sound a lot but it will be worth it since you are paying for his top expertise.

Mike Habib - Thank you for being so professional and honest and taking care of my brothers IRS situation. We are so relieved it is over and the offer in compromise process went just as you said. Mike is very professional and will give you honest answers to the OIC process and you can really trust him. You won't be sorry you chose him!

Mike is a true professional. He really came thru for me and my business. Dealing with the IRS is very scary. I'm a small business person who works hard and Mike helped me see that they are not that scary after all. He was always there with the answers I needed and was very good about calling me back which I appreciated since your first reaction is to freak out and ask a million questions. He solved a messy case and worked very hard to resolve it. His rates are VERY reasonable for the amount of work he does! I give him my highest recommendation!

The Best! Mike recently assisted us for the third time with our unfortunate tax issues. As with our previous experiences he was professional, courteous and excellent at understanding our situation with timely communication throughout. Words can't express how thankful we are. We highly recommend him and will definitely contact him again if needed.

I’ve seen and heard plenty of commercials on TV and radio for businesses offering tax help. I did my research on many of them only to discover numerous complaints and unresolved tax issues. I found Mike Habib through my own online search and contacted him. He was very professional with great communication, always answering my questions and concerns. Mike resolved my complicated tax problem just as he said he would. I would definitely recommend his services to family and friends.

This is long overdue but mike has been more than helpful and knowledgeable in all aspects of his trade really knows what to do and does it right. Fortunately, I have found mike and his team early on because I know we will be a great partnership with him advising on how to do my taxes and to set a plan for what I need to, to get the best bang for my buck. Thanks again Mike.

Mike has been terrific! He has handled specialized tax issues quickly, professionally, and thoroughly. I recommend him to everyone!

Mike was incredibly responsive to my IRS issues. Once I decided to go with him (after interviewing numerous other tax professionals), he got on the phone with the IRS immediately (as in the same day I signed with him) to squash an impending issue. And he worked directly with them to quickly come to a resolution I am very happy with. I'd highly recommend reaching out to Mike to see if he can help you with any IRS issues. I'm very satisfied!

I can't begin to convey ALL that Mike Habib EA successfully did for us after YEARS of using an attorney and a CPA, unsuccessfully. Our case with IRS is old and very complicated and after spending tens of thousands of dollars we gave up until the IRS created a crisis situation for us. I scoured the internet for help, made a couple of calls but often the attorneys or CPAs would hand you over to someone who works for them. I can’t work with that. We needed significant expertise. I was unfamiliar with what an EA was in comparison to a lawyer or CPA...BUT after researching it realized for complicated tax issues ...they are the BEST! We contracted with Mr. Habib in March of 2016. We finalized our 25-year-old ordeal in May of 2017. What other professionals could not do, Mike Habib did with brilliance, integrity and mind blowing results. Truly! He was professional, knowledgeable and compassionate from our first phone call all the way to the congratulatory announcement in May. I can't even believe when I look back ... at all the strategizing, navigating and engaging he did, especially for the price he charged us. Unlike the professionals I used for years prior, which billed hourly, he gave us a onetime fee for the whole case. Never were there hidden fees, added costs or reduction in the quality of his care throughout the 1 year and 3 months we worked with him. He was worth every penny and my own parents who watched us go through this process kept telling US ...we should pay him more! Mr. Habib conceptualized our case from our first phone call and pulled us online to understand what could/would happen and how he was going get us a solution that we could live with. He did. And it was better than what he promised. We are happy and relieved... We have not felt such peace over these financial foils in over 25 years. Mike Habib never wavered in his loyalty and care for us. He never tired nor slacked. He always replied to our emails, texts and phone calls ... We always worked with him and never ever were we handed off to an assistant. If you are having minor to major challenges with the IRS, he will get you the best outcome possible. Since hiring him, I've learned so much about bookkeeping and taxes. We have grown to trust him so significantly that we continue to use his services to file our income taxes. He is the best in the region and holds expertise in so many financial areas...he is a beacon of knowledge and a powerhouse of energy... the best to find peace again amidst the angst of financial distress.

Very professional helpful I will definitely recommend Mike to family and friends thank you so much for your help you have been wonderful very prompt and efficient. He did exactly what he said he was gonna do for my husband major IRS problem and Mike took care of everything for us.

Mike's expertise got us through a highly complicated tax issue. We were living with the stress of having the IRS strap us with an enormous monthly payment that would've altered our lives in the worst possible way. Mike was able to work with the IRS and the result was exponentially better than we could've ever imagined. Thanks to Mike, we now have peace of mind knowing our issue will be resolved, and we can live our lives without the threat of being financially under water. I HIGHLY recommend Mike and his firm, and will refer him to anyone who has a tax matter. Impeccable professionalism and integrity.

Great service Mike help me with my issue with the IRS always keeps in touch and available to listen to any questions very friendly make this whole nightmare looks easy thank you Mr. Mike Habib.

Mike Habib and Co. are amazing!! True to his word in every way, he took our case and systematically and professionally handled every communication with the IRS. The outcome was a resolution that made sense. We have had multiple other "Professionals", Lawyers and CPA's that never actually executed to a resolution. There was always something around the corner for them to work on (and keep charging). Mike Habib always had a plan and always knew the path to take to ensure the matter would finalize properly.

Mike helped me tremendously by negotiating with the IRS and the California Franchise Tax Board. Mike's skills and experience resulted in payment agreement plans of only $25 per month for the IRS & the FTB. He is thorough, reliable and always professional. If you want professional tax knowledge and assistance with integrity, choose Mike Habib.

I am a small business owner and searched several years for a reliable accountant to meet the needs of my small business. My previous accountant was competent; however, I always felt something was lacking on the service. I was often having to chase him or remind him about deadlines and never seemed to be getting the full service I was paying for. I met Mike Habib through my mother in law who was going through a small audit with her taxes. She was facing several thousand dollars of fines for inaccuracies that were filed by another accountant and went to Mr. Habib for help. I was very impressed how he expertly navigated the audit and was able to correct the mistakes made by the other accountant. My mother in law ended up having the entire matter dismissed and did not have to pay any fees to the IRS. From that day, I decided to switch my business taxes to Mr. Habib. Since then Mr. Habib has always taken the time to answer any questions or concerns I have regarding my taxes and handled everything in a prompt, professional, and efficient manner. You would often expect this high level of service to come with a high price tag; however, Mr. Habib's firm is reasonably priced and I actually saved a small amount of money switching from my old accountant to Mr. Habib. I have been extremely satisfied with his work and recommend him to my friends and family whenever they have problems.

Dealing with my taxes in not fun and always stressful. I was referred to Mike Habib and he came highly recommended. Mike reviewed my taxes and answered all my questions. He has been handling my taxes for over six years. I highly recommend his services to take care of all tax needs.

I first contacted Mike Habib, which was referred to me by a friend. I was in so much stress with back taxes incurred by my late husband. Mike was there with encouraging words and came thru with a plan that I could easily live with. Again, two weeks ago happened to need Mike's help once again. Once again, in a timely and professional manner Mike took away my financial stress. I would highly recommend Mike Habib to anyone.

Mike Habib is nothing short of a miracle worker! He took on our complicated, decade long case with the IRS, and where other "experts" and tax attorneys were unable to, Mike resolved our situation to our complete satisfaction. Courteous, accommodating with unique expertise as an authority on tax law, the IRS, and as a top notch financial advisor, we give Mike the highest recommendation possible as a professional and incredible human being who is dedicated to service and success!

BEYOND OUR EXPECTATIONS! Mike is the VERY, very best! He gave us our lives back and also tolerated my panic attacks. I feel that God led me to find Mike Habib; how else would a Georgia couple have come in contact with him?!

A quick note about Mike Habib: Mike helped us with our IRS situation and gave us peace of mind. We had scouted several CPA firms, but Mike's BBB ratings and his calm demeanor won us over. Then he delivered just as he said he would. I would recommend Mike to anyone in need of professional tax services.

When I contacted Mike I was suffering from sleeplessness and anxiety, especially after receiving an audit letter from the IRS. Mike was highly professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. Mike always greeted us with utmost respect and a smile that really calmed my anxiety. Being a meticulous person, I always showered Mike with my questions, which he answered in a courteous and patient manner. I was also impressed by his well of knowledge, and the way he organized my file. Mike was my representative before the IRS, and after every meeting he would call and give me an update on the progress of the audit. My audit was in way a blessing because it introduced me to a tax consultant like Mike. I will always seek Mike's help regarding my tax preparation. I finally found the right tax consultant.

I found Mike on Google after I had already been discouraged and talked down too by other tax attorneys in the Katy, TX area. None of them gave me a good feeling like they could help, but Mike responded immediately by email and was very nice. I have used him twice and each time I get the same response. THANK YOU for helping!! I hope I never have to use you again. I will definitely refer you out to others here in Texas.

Mike Habib... Thank you for your expertise in handling both my tax matters and my corporation. I wish I could have met Mike earlier in life. Mike's knowledge and professionalism is second to none. Mike knows his profession like no one else I have ever worked with. You couldn't make a better choice.

I received an IRS audit for 37k. I was very worried. I contacted Mr. Habib, because he was recommended by the CPA. I did not go to the IRS office. He resolved the issue for me and thanks to his skills and professional abilities; I did not have to pay a dollar. I would highly recommend him.
