Legal Fees Paid in the Course of a Trade or Business

At Christiansen PLLC, we value transparency and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. As part of our commitment to professionalism, we remind our clients of the IRS reporting requirements related to payments made to attorneys.

Under federal law, payments made to law firms for legal services—regardless of the amount—are reportable to the IRS on Form 1099-NEC (Nonemployee Compensation). These rules apply to both businesses and individuals when the payment is made in the course of a trade or business.

To assist you in fulfilling your reporting obligations, Christiansen PLLC provides our Employer Identification Number (EIN):

                                                                                         EIN: 87-4106074

If you have any questions about your reporting responsibilities, we recommend consulting your tax advisor for guidance. Should you require additional information or documentation from our firm to complete your reporting, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
