In a world where tax laws are constantly evolving, our expertise in sales and use tax is more relevant than ever. These changes can create significant opportunities to not only reduce your overall tax burden but also to reclaim cash refunds. Without the right knowledge and action, taxes paid to your vendors could inadvertently end up in state coffers, resulting in the forfeiture of both your refunds and potential future tax savings.
