Dooley, President, founded Advanced Recovery Services, Inc. (“ARS’) in 1998. From the beginning, his idea was to operate a firm that specialized in the recovery of sales and use tax and property tax, and to provide these services solely on a contingency fee basis. On the strength of his vision, ARS is now a national consulting firm with an ever growing portfolio of Fortune 500 accounts, minimizing their future tax liabilities. Over the past decade and as a consequence of current economic times, corporations need to recognize sales and use tax consequences that could impact their business such as: (1) requiring out of state businesses to collect and remit tax on in state sales even though no physical presence exists; (2) in lieu of collection and remittance, requiring out of state businesses to disclose use tax obligations to in state purchasers and (3) broadening the sales tax base to tax more service-based transactions. ARS cannot only help with these issues but offers the following services as well: • Sales and Use Tax Advisory Services • Sales and Use Tax Review and Recovery • Audit Defense • State Letter Rulings • Educational & Post Review Seminars • Voluntary Disclosure Agreements • Amnesty Filings • Compliance and Nexus Studies • Electric & Gas Studies and Pricing • Real Estate Tax Consulting & Appeals • Personal Property Tax Consulting & Appeals ARS’ success is based on its total commitment to excellence in service.
