Experience

David Cozzette has a BS Degree in Accounting and a Masters Degree in Finance. He was employed as a Controller for a company on Wall Street for 15 years before moving to Florida. He decided to leave New York City's fast paced, highly stressful lifestyle in order to pursue his dream of working directly with people assisting them with their accounting and tax needs.

David is an enrolled agent. What is an enrolled agent and why is this beneficial to you, the taxpayer? These questions are answered in the following sections.


What is an Enrolled Agent?

An Enrolled Agent (EA) is a federally-authorized tax practitioner who has technical expertise in the field of taxation and who is empowered by the U.S. Department of Treasury to represent taxpayers before all administrative levels of the Internal Revenue Service for audits, collections, and appeals.


How can an Enrolled Agent help me?

Enrolled Agents advise, represent, and prepare tax returns for individuals, partnerships, corporations, estates, trusts, and any entities with tax-reporting requirements. Enrolled Agents' expertise in the continually changing field of taxation enables them to effectively represent taxpayers audited by the IRS.


What are the differences between Enrolled Agents and other tax professionals?

Only Enrolled Agents are required to demonstrate to the IRS their competence in matters of taxation before they may represent a taxpayer before the IRS. Unlike attorneys and CPAs, who may or may not choose to specialize in taxes, all Enrolled Agents specialize in taxation. Enrolled Agents are the only taxpayer representatives who receive their right to practice from the U.S. government (CPAs and attorneys are licensed by the states).
