John is a member of the National Association of Tax Professionals and the American Society of Tax Problem Solvers (ASTPS), a national, non-profit organization of tax professionals that trains attorneys focused on the fight for troubled taxpayers.  ASTPS is the only organization solely devoted to the development of professional skills in this area of practice.  These memberships allow everyone at the Ecton Law Firm to stay on top of the changes and updates in the laws and regulations affecting the tax resolution industry. 

After 23 years in South Carolina, John has established himself as a truly “LOCAL” professional.  He believes in creating better lives for taxpayers in Carolina suffering from IRS tax problems.  By creating this local presence in the Midlands, he is able to see the change in the lives of the people in his community.

Why focus on IRS Issues?  After assisting people with various legal problems during his early years in the profession, John noticed the void for local legal representation of individuals struggling with IRS tax problems.   Driven to seek the improvement of the lives of these individuals, John saw this as a very rewarding area of practice that would significantly impact people's lives. He loves the challenge of solving problems for his clients, but also prizes the friendships with those who have sought out his help.  Both of these qualities are a real benefit to him in the area of law he is now focused on – helping taxpayers solve their IRS problems once and for all.
