Frank has the distinction of being both an attorney and a certified public accountant, licensed to practice each in both New Jersey and New York. He is also a certified financial planner. With this background, Frank brings a unique financial and tax analysis to legal issues that most attorneys are simply not equipped to undertake.

Frank assists people and businesses in tax and financial planning. He represents taxpayers in audits, and in disputes with the United States Internal Revenue Service and the New Jersey Division of Taxation. He negotiates violations, assessments, delinquencies, penalties, fines and interest with state, local and federal tax authorities. He handles businesses with Labor Department audits. He represents taxpayers in litigation in Tax Court and tax appeals. He also handles transactions with the Small Business Administration.

These complementary areas of professional expertise make Frank a uniquely qualified attorney. For instance, Frank's financial background helps make him an expert at both the legal aspects of estate planning, and the tax aspects as well. It allows Frank to structure effective business and real estate transactions which maximize return while also minimizing tax consequences. It allows Frank to counsel businesses in financial trouble to reorganize and re-emerge to pursue strategies that help them grow and thrive.

Frank also has unique experience in bankruptcy law. Frank worked for the United States Bankruptcy Trustee in Manhattan, and has represented many people and businesses seeking bankruptcy protection.
