Terry Lemons brings a unique blend of skills and experience as Frost Law’s Public Relations Director. From running communications and outreach for a major government agency to covering Congress and the White House as a reporter, Lemons has decades of experience inside and outside government.
During more than 26 years at the Internal Revenue Service, he played a pivotal role overseeing the tax agency’s communications and outreach efforts to taxpayers and tax professionals. His behind-the-scenes duties included advising six different IRS Commissioners, creating the IRS “Dirty Dozen” tax scams list in 2002, establishing the innovative IRS social media program as well as working closely with the tax professional and legal communities on tax compliance and taxpayer service issues.
Before retiring from government in February 2025, Lemons worked for 11 years as the IRS Chief of Communications and Liaison. He led a 325-person team and oversaw the agency’s work with the tax community, Congress, the news media as well as internal communications to 100,000 employees.
Before joining the IRS in 1998, Lemons spent 15 years as an award-winning newspaper reporter, including serving as Washington bureau chief of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. He covered the White House and Congress for the Little Rock-based newspaper following Bill Clinton’s victory in the 1992 presidential election.
During his government and journalism career, he has conducted hundreds of media interviews as the IRS senior spokesman, appearing everywhere from NBC’s Today Show and the PBS Newshour to dozens of major newspaper and radio outlets across the country.
After retiring from the IRS, Lemons continued his work in the tax community. He’s made more than a dozen speaking and podcasts appearances to provide an insider’s perspective on issues ranging from taxes and the IRS to the federal government and communications.
Lemons has also returned to his writing roots, with recent articles appearing in publications including Forbes.com and The Hill. A St. Louis native and a University of Missouri graduate, Lemons is a die-hard Cardinals fan. His first book – on baseball - will be published in the summer of 2026.
Even without engaging, the partners of this law firm give incredible advise and think of their clients first. I had the pleasure of speaking with Peter and we was very thourough and helped me understand my legal strategy better. Highly recommend, will definitely engage the firm who needed. TOP NOTCH!
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.
We tried everything before hiring an attorney to deal with the IRS. They were able to get the IRS to correct their own mistake. I hope I never need them again but if I do at least I know where to go next time.
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.
Frost Law was a pleasure to work with. They worked with us to obtain the Employee Retention Credit. Everyone we worked with was friendly, helpful, and patient in answering questions and explaining the process to us. I highly recommend them!

Outstanding webinar!
We had the pleasure of working with Frost & Associates this year to prepare and file ERC returns. Everyone from their administrative staff to their paralegals and attorneys were friendly, professional and kept us informed every step of the way. Highly, highly recommend.
