About W. Anthony Cole
Tony Cole, the founder of Cole Tax Consulting, is an Enrolled Agent, licensed by the US Treasury. He can represent taxpayers in front of the IRS in all fifty states. He has a wealth of experience in resolving IRS and state tax problems. Tony was previously employed at larger tax firms, but he became dissatisfied with their tendency to delegate client interactions to assistants and constantly raise fees. As a result, he founded Cole Tax Consulting to provide personalized attention and fair, transparent pricing to clients. In addition to his work as a tax consultant, Tony also served in the United States Marine Corps. He is a member of both the National Association of Enrolled Agents and the Illinois Society of Enrolled Agents.
