Martens, Todd & Leonard

About this office:

Martens, Todd & Leonard handles only state tax and federal tax controversies and litigation. We handle all types of federal tax disputes including federal income tax, estate and gift tax, payroll tax, and excise tax. Recently, we have handled many Offshore Voluntary Compliance cases as well as Worker Reclassification cases. We handle tax disputes involving Texas sales tax, Texas franchise tax, Texas property tax, Texas motor vehicle and motor fuels taxes, IFTA (International Fuel Tax Agreement) tax, mixed beverage tax, Texas tobacco tax, and other Texas taxes. We also represent clients in tax disputes in other states, including Louisiana, Colorado, Oklahoma, New Mexico, California, North Dakota, Kansas, and Florida.

We represent our clients in challenging assessments in administrative hearings, in court, and through all levels of judicial appeals. Our attorneys are licensed in all of the Texas courts, including the district courts, appeals courts and Texas Supreme Court. We are also licensed in the United States Tax Court, the Federal District Courts, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals, and the U.S. Supreme Court. Since we limit our practice solely to federal tax disputes and state tax disputes, we don't prepare returns, prepare wills, or engage in tax planning.
