Whether it is blocking attempts to increase taxes on specific industries, advocating for multi-million dollar tax refunds and settlements, or developing new state-funded business incentives, Capitol Advocacy knows how to navigate California’s complex tax structure to get results.

Capitol Advocacy’s team has expertise in all areas of tax policy necessary to help achieve your company’s goals. From advocating for or against tax increases, credits, or assessments to representing clients at the Board of Equalization, California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, or Office of Tax Appeals, Capitol Advocacy is consistently engaged and successful on tax issues. Our track record of success is unmatched – we have won multi-million-dollar settlements, tax refund claims and created new business incentives.
