The IRS Doesn’t Miss Deadlines.
Neither Can You.
Managed IT and strategic advisory for tax law and tax controversy firms.
Tax controversy and tax planning work runs on hard deadlines and highly sensitive financial detail — income, assets, and account information most clients share with almost no one else. Neither the deadline nor the data forgives a generalist approach to IT.
DP3 understands deadline-driven legal environments. We built our practice supporting law firms where a missed filing or a lost document isn’t an inconvenience — it’s a client’s exposure to the IRS.
We build the document management, security, and reliability your practice needs to move fast when correspondence deadlines hit, and to keep client financial detail protected every day in between.
Who We Serve
-
Tax Controversy Firms
Firms representing clients in IRS disputes, audits, and appeals, where deadline discipline is non-negotiable.

IT Services for Tax Law Firms
The same disciplined approach we bring to legal environments, applied to the deadline pressure and financial data sensitivity of tax practice.
Managed IT
Proactive monitoring and support so your systems stay available when an IRS correspondence deadline lands, not just on an average business day.
vCIO Advisory
Strategic technology planning aligned with your firm’s growth — budgeting, vendor evaluation, and roadmaps that account for seasonal workload swings.
Security & Confidentiality
Encrypted storage, access controls, and secure file-sharing for the financial detail clients trust you with, calibrated to how sensitive that relationship actually is.
Projects & Engineering
Document management upgrades, secure client portals, and integrations between correspondence tracking and case management systems.
A Deadline the Other Side Set.
Most deadline pressure in a law firm is negotiable to some degree — a judge grants an extension, opposing counsel agrees to a delay. An IRS correspondence deadline generally isn’t. That makes document reliability a compliance issue, not just an operational one.
At the same time, the financial detail involved — income, assets, account records — is exactly what identity thieves and business email compromise schemes are after. A firm built to respect one pressure has to respect the other just as seriously.
Common Questions from Tax Law Firms
Questions we hear regularly from firm principals and administrators evaluating managed IT partners.
How does DP3 support firms working against IRS deadlines? +
IRS deadlines don’t extend because a document couldn’t be located or a system went down. We build reliable document management and communication systems around the correspondence and filing deadlines tax controversy work runs on, so a technology problem never becomes the reason a deadline is missed.
How does DP3 protect the financial data our clients share with us? +
Tax law clients hand over some of the most sensitive financial detail that exists — income, assets, and account information. DP3 builds encrypted storage, access controls, and secure file-sharing around that data as part of a managed IT engagement, not as an afterthought.
Can DP3 handle the seasonal workload swings tax practices deal with? +
Yes. vCIO planning accounts for seasonal patterns directly — budgeting, staffing-related technology needs, and infrastructure that holds up when correspondence and filing volume spike around IRS deadlines, rather than a generic annual plan applied uniformly.
Does DP3 work with firms handling high-net-worth or complex client matters? +
Yes. High-net-worth and complex tax matters carry an added expectation of discretion. We build the access controls and confidentiality practices that reflect how sensitive that client relationship actually is, not a one-size-fits-all baseline.
Does DP3 only work with large tax law firms? +
No. We’ll make DP3 work for tax law firms of nearly any size — though firms typically see the most value from managed IT and vCIO advisory once they have 10 or more employees.
Don’t Let a Deadline Become a Liability.
Your clients are counting on precision. Your IT should never be the reason it slips.
