Attorney Credits Launches New CLE Course: ERC Compliance and Controversy with Sam Brotman
The Californer/10336710

SAN DIEGO - Californer -- Attorney Credits, a leading provider of continuing legal education, has released a new on-demand CLE course titled ERC Compliance and Controversy: Navigating Litigation and Resolving Claims, presented by Sam Brotman, a nationally recognized tax attorney with extensive experience handling Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERC) matters.

Although ERC-related advertising has largely disappeared, IRS scrutiny has not. In fact, enforcement has intensified, with a growing number of claims flagged as high-risk, improper, or potentially fraudulent. Brotman currently has dozens of ERC cases in active litigation with the IRS and brings firsthand insight into the evolving enforcement and dispute landscape.

This CLE provides attorneys with a comprehensive overview of the ERC's legislative origins, qualification requirements, and the controversies that have followed. Participants will gain practical guidance on advising clients regarding eligibility, responding to IRS audits, and choosing between administrative and judicial paths to resolve disputed claims. The course combines real-world case analysis with actionable compliance and litigation strategies.
