In addition to his practice as a CPA with Lanphier LLP, Dennis maintains a solo law practice within the same office. He focuses on tax consulting, as well as business law and litigation. Many of our accounting firm clients choose to use Dennis as their legal representation as well, finding the convenience of having their accountant and lawyer under one roof irresistible.
Dennis graduated from Gonzaga University with a B.B.A. in Accounting. He attended law school at the University of Denver, where he received his J.D. and L.L.M. in Taxation. After law school, Dennis worked for Deloitte in the international tax group, where he met his wife, Brittany (and the rest is history).
