What Our Clients Are Saying

  • “We had some very difficult issues to present to IRS agents as well as the IRS National Office.  MASSIE was able to present our position in a professional manner and, with terrific knowledge of the subject matter, was able to get us excellent results.”

    Rick WiseFormer Executive Director of TaxGaylord Entertainment

  • “I have found MASSIE to be very knowledgeable with regard to the credits and helpful in assisting us to maximize benefits.  This, of course, has been welcomed by our corporate staff.  However, the attribute that sets MASSIE apart is that they work exceptionally well with our operations personnel and minimize demand on their time in quantifying and appropriately supporting our credits.”

    Jon Dickinson, P.E.,Chief Financial OfficerGeosyntec Consultants

  • “Before MASSIE we had a very cumbersome and expensive R&D tax credit process. Since MASSIE took over the project our credit has increased, the cost has decreased and the feedback we have received is that the SMEs enjoy the MASSIE interaction far better. I would highly recommend that you consider MASSIE for your R&D Tax Credit project.”

    Clayton Brant SharpVice President of TaxesARRIS International plc

  • “Getting the R&D tax credits in the early stages of our small company’s growth has been a significant benefit in continuing the work.  No research, no competitive edge.  No money, no research. Thanks, MASSIE!”

    Frank KoperdaCEONextGen Technologies

  • “MASSIE was able to come in, interview people in various departments, obtain the cost information, create the necessary documents and put together a presentation binder to support the deduction that was easy to follow and understand.  When we got audited I was able to just hand the documents over to the IRS with very little commentary.  The entire credit amount was accepted.”

    Robert HowrenDirector of TaxBlueLinx Corporation

  • “MASSIE's experts worked hand-in-hand with our tax department and SMEs to seamlessly deliver a claim larger and sooner than I expected. The MASSIE Method of putting our people first worked great for our Georgia Retraining Tax Credit and R&D Credit. Their focused expertise and documentation tools helped us know we were buttoned up. I would highly recommend MASSIE to anyone looking for a provider who under promises and over delivers.”
