Client testimonials

Frost & Associates, LLC is a very caring and responsible firm. Every moment of my involvement with them has been a good experience. They are very professional and very concerned with getting the best outcome for their clients. I would refer my friends and family to them for their legal and tax needs. Their professional cost are very reasonable and flexible. They respond quickly and will give their honest opinion of the position of your case.

It amazes me the level of effort that Frost and Associates puts in every year during tax season. I often see emails at 9:30 p.m. asking questions or providing status updates. The commitment that this firm has to meet deadlines and provide timely customer service is outstanding to say the least. Much appreciation for your hard work and dedication.

Frost Law did everything they said they would do, and the church received their refund.

Angela P.

Professional and effective. Realistic, methodical planning and execution. After no luck with several companies that claimed huge results, I was referred to Frost and Associates, LLC by a friend that had gone though a similar situation. I have been impressed the whole way through. They are prepared with the next strategy when one doesn't go as planned. They are honest and up front about the possible scenarios and are great with communication.

Client testimonials

Charles was Very professional, Took the time to answer my questions and help me understand my situation. HIGHLY recommend.

When you are having an issue with the IRS, you need professional help to communicate with the right person within the IRS that can help you with your situation. Unfortunately I was not able to find that person and my situation continued to drag on for months. I would communicate by letter and also attempted to use the phone but to no avail. The IRS did not quit working my case and their letters indicated they were getting stronger in demands.

I found Frost Law Firm paid a reasonable retainer, and they were working my case within days. I was very impressed with their contacts within the IRS and how they represented me. Lauren Mata was my attorney and she was very diligent, great at follow up and did everything she said she would do.

My case was settled not long ago, to my benefit as we were able to prove that our position was correct. Whereas I did not have the credibility with the IRS, Frost and Lauren Mata did. I believe I received good value for what I was charged.

Michael U.

I found Frost Law Firm online after desperately searching for ways to expedite the long, painful process of getting desperately needed covid-19 pandemic era tax credits in 2024. Their legal team, including Hunter Scott, of this firm literally was one of my life-jackets on the fast-sinking ship of my business. Through their work with the IRS on my behalf, I had 90% of the tax credit refunds in hand by the close of 2025, which helped me turn things around. I highly recommend their expertise when it comes to the tax laws.

Allison W.

I've had the privilege to work with several attorneys with Frost Law. Every attorney has been technically proficient and provided solutions to our work. Our matter was resolved by Zachary Lyda! Highly recommend!

Precision

Every detail matters in litigation

The difference between winning and losing often comes down to what you noticed that others missed. I don't overlook anything.

Clarity

You need to understand your options

Legal jargon clouds judgment. I explain your situation plainly so you can make decisions with full knowledge of what's at stake.
