Sales & Use Tax Services

Recover Lost Revenue

Our sales tax department over the years has recouped millions of dollars in “overpayment” of sales tax for our clients. We were asked to enter the sales tax arena upon request many years ago by our property tax clients. During our sales tax review, we want to ultimately do three things: put you in control of the review, and then train your team our findings at the end and transfer that valuable knowledge. Our team has some of the most respected professionals in the business with the expertise to review certain processes to find areas of overpayment.

Sales & Use Tax Reviews

Sales tax exemptions are available across the nation for oil and gas and midstream operators. Each state’s tax code can feel like a maze, but our sales and use tax team has years and relevant experience of reviewing the tax code for specific opportunities to recover your tax dollars. Our team specializes in not only recouping a possible overpayment of sales tax but training your team throughout the process.

No Disruption Review

Our team has the specific oil and gas knowledge that keeps questions to your team to a minimum and us out of your office

Review

Our team has the ability to do a sampling method review or a full review where we review every single invoice that you have of record

Industry Experience

We have leaders in our sales and use tax department that have been analyzing invoices for over 30 years within the industry meaning we know exactly what to look for

The Client Is In Control

We work for our clients, not a fee. Our clients dictate the review and you decide what to pursue after our work is done

Our Sales Tax Process

01

WE IDENTIFY REFUNDS

We have an extremely sharp department when it comes time to identify your Sales & Use Tax overpayment. With leaders coming from different industries, we have the ability to go industry by industry understanding the uniqueness of each. Our team reviews invoices to determine the opportunity. We will be competitive on fee and welcome the opportunity to bid on your next project.

02

YOU DECIDE

Unlike many other tax firms, we put our client in the driver’s seat when it comes time to file your refund. Sometimes in looking at invoices and through our thorough work, we do find instances where there is exposure or underpayment of sales tax. In that situation, we bring our findings to you and let you decide what we should pursue.

03

WE TRAIN YOUR TEAM

After our work is complete, we train every single one of our clients on our findings so they can begin to identify these types of situations. We also take the specific tax code related to your business, and narrow it down to what matters to you and your process. We believe in adding value to our clients through a relationship and want to make sure they avoid overpaying sales tax going forward.
