Biographical Information

I love what I do!

It may sound strange, but I love reading the Internal Revenue Code, U.S. Treasury Regulations, and any court case involving tax. I enjoy keeping up with tax law changes and filling out tax forms. When I tell people I am a tax attorney, they often make a joke about death and taxes. Then, some ask if there is a lot of money in my field; I usually smile because I didn't go to law school to get rich. I, honestly, got into law because I want to people.

After I completed my education, I went to work for a major accounting firm as an international tax consultant. My coworkers were great people, but I struggled to identify the individuals I was actually helping. I researched U.S. and foreign tax implications of liquidating foreign subsidiaries, calculated the U.S. tax bills for repatriating gains from controlled foreign corporations, and assisted large corporations restructure their global enterprise to avoid U.S. taxes. This was all very interesting and challenging work, but I'd lost sight of my goal to help people. I recognized I needed to start my own business if I really wanted to help individuals.

Rábago Law is the realization of these aspirations – to partner with individual taxpayers and small business owners to understand their unique circumstances, simplify their obligations, ease their tax concerns, and help them build strong financial futures.

I hope you will contact me to find out how I can help you!
