Peter Aprile is smart, personable, timely and efficient, which are four qualities that don’t always go together! I give Counter Tax Lawyers my highest recommendation.

Peter Aprile acted for 2Source Manufacturing, Inc. on a difficult tax matter. Peter immediately grasped all the details, developed an innovative solution, related well to the people across the table and brought the matter to a most successful conclusion out of court. It was our pleasure to be represented by Peter.
Peter and Natalie explained the issues and used [CounterMeasure] to provide a complete tax litigation risk and decision analysis printout that outlined every path, financial impact (including legal fees), and the probabilities related to every outcome. The analysis translated the legal issues into business language and numbers. It ended any guesswork or speculation and put me in a position to make the best decision.
The CRA audited my company and claimed the company owed a half-million in tax, penalties, and interest. My accountant recommended that I hire Counter to fight the reassessments.
It was a very difficult case but Peter and Natalie worked hard to overturn the reassessments. At the objection stage, Counter’s work saved $148,000. After the objection stage, Natalie uncovered an error in the CRA’s reassessment that led to another $26,000 reduction. At that point, I was satisfied with the result and was ready to pay the balance.
Peter recommended that we push to Tax Court on two specific issues. Peter and Natalie explained the issues and used [CounterMeasure] to provide a complete tax litigation risk and decision analysis printout that outlined every path, financial impact (including legal fees), and the probabilities related to every outcome. The analysis translated the legal issues into business language and numbers. It ended any guesswork or speculation and put me in a position to make the best decision.
We chose to pursue the matter in Tax Court. The result was consistent with the analysis and recommendation. Peter and Natalie persuaded the government to accept a settlement at a very early stage saving another $100,000. I was extremely happy with Peter’s and Natalie’s work, the precise analysis, and – most importantly – the result. Thank you!
Our approach is pretty intense. We live and breathe your case as if it were our own. And we’re only interested in first place.
