Hypothetical question

Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.

CPA made error on tax return. I've been dealing with this for about 4 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already consulted briefly with a lawyer but did not get a clear answer.

What are my legal options here? Is it worth pursuing?

Illustrative response

Here's my take on the legal issues.

The legal framework here involves both federal and state law. At the federal level, the relevant statute. Your state may provide additional protections.

Depending on your state there might be legal aid orgs that cover this too.
