Meet Phillip Mixon, CPA/JD
Managing Attorney
Phillip Mixon brings substantial expertise and a distinguished professional background to his Houston tax law practice, ensuring clients receive exceptional representation in all tax-related matters.
Attorney Mixon holds a rare dual qualification as both a tax attorney and Certified Public Accountant (CPA). With both his CPA license and Texas bar license active, he offers a unique combination of legal and financial acumen that benefits clients facing multifaceted tax challenges.
Background & Big Four Experience
Phillip’s career began at one of the Big Four accounting firms, where he developed his skills in the Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) tax department. At his previous employer’s firm, he played a central role in advising clients on the tax implications of corporate transactions, ensuring compliance and optimizing tax outcomes during high-stakes deals. His Big Four experience provided invaluable insights into the complexities of tax law and corporate finance, which he now leverages in his current practice.
Those years at his previous firm involved corporate transactions worth hundreds of millions of dollars, where precision was mandatory and deadlines were immovable. That demanding environment taught him how to identify workable solutions under extreme pressure—a skill that serves his clients exceptionally well when facing IRS disputes or complex tax controversies.
Current Practice Focus
Today, Attorney Mixon focuses his practice on IRS and state tax controversy matters. His extensive background enables him to expertly handle disputes with taxing authorities, providing strategic advice and representation to individuals and businesses facing audits, assessments, and other tax-related challenges. Whether negotiating with the IRS, contesting state tax determinations, or navigating complex tax regulations, his clients can trust they’re in capable hands.
This controversy experience informs the tax planning advice he provides—he understands what triggers IRS scrutiny and how to structure planning to minimize audit risk while achieving optimal tax results.
