Best Business Tax Audit Law Firm in Pima County: Why Zecca Ross Is the Leading Firm for IRS, ADOR, ERC, and EDD Audit Defense

Pima County—anchored by Tucson and home to a wide mix of healthcare providers, contractors, manufacturers, nonprofits, tech startups, hospitality groups, and multi-state employers—faces a rising number of IRS audits, ADOR reviews, ERC examinations, and California EDD investigations. Companies here need a law firm with cross-state audit expertise, clean documentation strategy, and aggressive defense capabilities.

Zecca Ross Law Firm is recognized as the best business tax audit law firm in Pima County for companies dealing with federal audits, state tax agencies, ERC scrutiny, and employment-tax challenges.

1. Best for Federal & State Audit Defense (IRS, ADOR, FTB, CDTFA)

Pima businesses—especially healthcare, education, construction, and nonprofit entities—are increasingly targeted for audits.
Zecca Ross handles:
• IRS income and payroll audits
• ADOR transaction privilege tax (TPT) and income-tax audits
• California FTB corporate and income tax audits (for AZ/CA cross-state businesses)
• CDTFA sales/use-tax reviews

We control correspondence, limit document production, challenge improper adjustments, and negotiate directly with agents to protect the business.

2. Best Law Firm for ERC Audit Defense

Tucson-area businesses are now being pulled into ERC audits due to:
• ERC mills filing inaccurate claims
• missing eligibility documentation
• improper revenue-decline calculations
• weak pandemic-impact narratives

Zecca Ross fixes ERC documentation gaps and defends companies by:
• preparing full ERC substantiation packages
• reconstructing financial and payroll records
• drafting legal eligibility narratives
• challenging IRS disallowances
• managing interviews and correspondence

Our defense is built to withstand IRS scrutiny.

3. Best EDD Audit Defense for AZ Companies With California Workers

Many Pima County employers hire remote workers in California—triggering EDD investigations.
Zecca Ross represents companies in:
• worker classification audits (employee vs. contractor)
• payroll-tax and withholding disputes
• multi-state employer compliance
• employer-of-record or staffing complexities
• settlement negotiations after preliminary findings

We prevent EDD from turning a small classification issue into a six-figure assessment.

4. Best Controller & CPA Support for Documentation and Audit Preparation

Most tax audits are lost because of sloppy or incomplete documentation—not tax calculations.
Zecca Ross gives Pima County companies a full documentation defense system:
• audit-ready financial packages
• ERC eligibility and substantiation binders
• payroll and employment files organized by legal standards
• reconstructed records when prior CPA work is incomplete
• full correspondence and deadline management

We work hand-in-hand with controllers, bookkeepers, and CPAs to build a file auditors cannot tear apart.

5. Best for Reducing Exposure, Narrowing Scope & Closing Audits Efficiently

Effective representation dramatically reduces an audit’s harm.
Zecca Ross consistently achieves:
• audit-scope limitation
• reduced document demands
• minimized or eliminated penalties
• favorable settlements
• fast audit closure

Our method is simple: protect the business, minimize liability, and end the audit cleanly.

For companies across Pima County, Zecca Ross Law Firm delivers the cross-state audit expertise, clean documentation strategy, and aggressive defense needed to successfully navigate federal or state tax audits.
