Frost Tax law was an incredible team to work with. Dan Staeven was quick to respond and had just the right amount of empathy for my personal situation. I highly recommend Frost and especially Dan Staeven to any and all who find themselves in need of this type of support.

Client testimonials

We’ve started working with Frost Tax Law on our ERC claim that had stalled and was getting extremely frustrated with working with (or dealing with) the IRS. He was able to expedite a quick response as well as getting our claims approved and paid when I was barely able to get a response from the IRS. Highly recommend

Info U.

Very communicative and no use of "legaleze" to describe tax situations/complexities!

Daniel G.

Good summary of the Tax Act of 2025.

Stuart C.

I’ve worked with various individuals at Frost and Associates over the past four years. To the person, I couldn’t have been happier with their representation. There have been many complicated issues, and they’ve always taken the time and patience to explain same to me. I’ve probably recommended them to three or four of my friends.

Roy K.
