There is money available to many Law Firm owners who were impacted by COVID-19!

The ERC is a cash credit from the IRS - not a loan. It is money for you to spend as you wish.

The ERC is a cash credit from the IRS - not a loan. It is money for you to spend as you wish.

Nearly all law firms were affected as a result of COVID-19. The lengthy shutdowns, limitations on capacity, and increased safety protocols, all created huge changes to office structure as we know it. Perhaps most importantly, court closures and the resulting delays are still causing issues to many litigation practices.

During the pandemic, many law firms were forced to send their attorneys home to quarantine, and lawyers had to contend with setting up their offices at home while continuing their work in a remote setting.

If your law firm experienced either #1 or #2 below due to COVID-19, you may qualify for the Employee Retention Credit program.

1. A greater than 10% restriction on your business operations due to government issued COVID orders, which might include:

  • Court closures
  • Capacity restrictions or social distancing requirements
  • Working from home and remote office work
  • Enhanced sanitation and hygiene requirements
  • Disruptions due to employees being sick with COVID-19
  • Limitation of the number of people allowed in your office
  • Change of format of service
  • Reconfiguring staff shifts to accommodate social distancing

2. A 50% or more decline in gross receipts in 2020 when compared to the same quarter in 2019 or a 20% or more decline in gross receipts in 2021 when compared to the same quarter in 2019.

As a risk-averse non-profit organization focused on our community, we were very cautious in our approach to filing for the Employee Retention Credit but the experts at [Sagemont Tax] eased our concerns. They took on the burden of hiring an outside law firm to provide legal analysis and provide additional assurance to support our position. Sagemont Tax made the process very streamlined and simple, with clear instructions through every step, making data-gathering easy. The current combination of inflation and lack of affordable housing has dramatically increased the need for our services. This refund has made an enormous impact on our mission and allows us to help more members of our community!

When I was introduced to the team at [Sagemont Tax], I had already started the ERC filing process with another company. However, communication with the other agency had been inconsistent and information processing was extremely slow. I was immediately impressed with [Sagemont Tax’s] knowledge of the program’s latest updates and eligibility qualifications. Once I switched to their firm, they really took a hands-on approach. As a business owner with a full schedule, it was a relief that they were able to complete a majority of the filing process on my behalf. Overall, the experience with [Sagemont Tax’s] team was fantastic, and I highly recommend working with them. In fact, I have sent many of my colleagues their way and they have had a similar positive experience.

As a new business owner, COVID restrictions took a huge toll on my yoga studio. My retirement dream became grim through decreased membership and increased operational costs. My HR provider let me know about the ERC and that Yoga Six would be eligible for a quarter. After talking to other Yoga Six owners, I learned that my business may be eligible for additional quarters and I was put in touch with [Sagemont Tax]. The team at [Sagemont Tax] advised that my business was in fact eligible for the credit for additional quarters, and they assisted me through the process of obtaining our credit of over $100k. [Sagemont Tax] walked me through everything, and although there is a lot of tedious paperwork, it was straightforward and [Sagemont Tax] made it pretty dang easy. The ERC allowed me to avoid bankruptcy and pay myself back for the money I had to use to stay afloat during the COVID years – I tell all business owners I meet to look into the credit and learn more from [Sagemont Tax].

After learning about the ERC through other Right at Home owners, we reached out to our accountant for preliminary validation. Our accountant didn’t believe we qualified, which is when we were put in touch with [Sagemont Tax]. After speaking with the team, we quickly learned we did qualify as our business of providing home care to the elderly and disabled was heavily affected by COVID restrictions. [Sagemont Tax] helped us through the entire process of filing for our credit, they were on top of everything and kept us informed throughout every step. Receiving this credit has allowed us to pay off debts we incurred during the pandemic and helped us with hiring – which continues to be a struggle for business owners in this new post-pandemic world. We understand that other business owners are reluctant regarding the ERC, but we tell people that having a great firm to support them like [Sagemont Tax] made it a no-brainer.
