FBR Notice Reply & Tax Audit Representation

If you have received a notice from the FBR, ADL Law Associates can help. We draft professional replies to income tax and sales tax notices, represent you in audits and hearings, and defend your position before the Commissioner and appellate forums. Our team combines tax practice with genuine courtroom experience — so your response is built to hold up under scrutiny.

FBR notices we handle

What we do for you

How the process works

  1. Send us the notice — share it with us as soon as you receive it.
  2. We assess it — identify what is being asked, the risk, and the deadline.
  3. We build your reply — evidence, records and legal grounds together.
  4. We represent you — at hearings and, if required, on appeal.

Why acting fast matters

FBR notices carry strict deadlines. Missing them can lead to an ex-parte assessment, penalties and default surcharge, and recovery action against your bank accounts. Reaching out early gives us time to prepare a proper defence and often resolves the matter at the first stage. Read our FBR tax notice guide for background, then get in touch.

Frequently asked questions

What should I do when I receive an FBR notice?

Do not ignore it. Note the response deadline on the notice, avoid replying in a hurry without advice, and get professional help. A well-drafted, evidence-backed reply early on often prevents a small query from becoming a large demand.

Which FBR notices do you handle?

We handle income tax and sales tax notices, including those seeking information or records, withholding-tax notices, audit selections, amendment of assessment, penalty and default-surcharge notices, and recovery notices.

How long do I have to respond to an FBR notice?

The notice itself specifies the deadline, often between 7 and 15 days. Extensions can sometimes be requested, but it is best to act immediately so we can prepare a proper reply within time.

What happens if I ignore an FBR notice?

Ignoring a notice can lead to an ex-parte (best-judgement) assessment, penalties, default surcharge and recovery action such as bank-account attachment. Responding properly and on time is almost always cheaper than dealing with the consequences.

Can you represent me in the audit or hearing?

Yes. We represent clients through the full process — drafting the reply, attending hearings before the Commissioner, and pursuing appeals before the Commissioner (Appeals) and Appellate Tribunal where needed.

Do you handle sales tax notices as well as income tax?

Yes. We deal with both income tax and sales tax notices, audits and proceedings, and coordinate the two where a matter involves both.
