LAW 500 - CA Tax Appeals Assist. Program

Unit(s): 1 to 3

The Tax Appeals Assistance Program (TAAP) provides students with the opportunity to assist low-income individuals in certain tax disputes before the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA). Under the supervision of an attorney from the CDTFA, students assist taxpayers with state income tax disputes against the California Franchise Tax Board (FTB). Students participate in hands on practical legal skills training in various ways, including direct client interaction, gathering evidence, drafting legal briefs and memoranda, and representing clients in negotiations with the FTB. Students often have the opportunity to represent clients at appeals conferences and oral hearings before the CDTFA.
