About Murray
Murray Singerman earned his J.D. from the University of Baltimore in 1989 and returned to the same school to complete an LL.M. in Taxation in 1992. Those years shaped his legal outlook. They also set the groundwork for a career centered on tax disputes and courtroom work.
After finishing his studies, he established a practice rooted in tax law and litigation. Over time he built experience representing taxpayers in contested matters and advising on tax procedure. His work includes trial-level representation and appeals in federal court. He is admitted to practice in Maryland and before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.
Colleagues describe his approach as methodical. He breaks complex statutory language into clear issues. He prepares written submissions and oral argument with attention to the record. That orientation serves both audit-stage controversies and litigated matters. For clients, the practical result is papers and arguments that try to keep disputes on solid legal ground.
Courtroom appearances and appellate briefs are regular parts of his practice. He handles disputes that arise from federal and state tax assessments, contested collections, and related procedural fights. He often weighs whether a case should be tried or settled. The choice usually turns on the strength of the administrative record and the client’s exposure.
Outside the courtroom he works on assessments of exposure and procedural remedies. He advises on petitioning administrative bodies, pursuing refund suits, and defending collection actions. He also evaluates the consequences of settlement alternatives and negotiated outcomes. That work can reshape a dispute before a single brief is filed.
Today he continues to practice tax law and litigation. He represents clients in Maryland and in proceedings before the Fourth Circuit, focusing on resolving contested tax matters through trial advocacy, appeals, and administrative remedies.
