Testimonials.
Helping people with their passions.
Mercedes Austin
CEO / Owner Mercury Mosaics
R&D credits empower and reward businesses in the US in cash for growing and creating value and making opportunities for Americans. Chris Lake helped us through the process of claiming these, and her attention to detail and delivering what was promised made it really clear that I could trust the results.
Nola Aronson
CEO / Owner Advanced Audiology
Had I not moved ahead with this, I would have not had the extra money to pay an extra audiologist and to make my business better and so I’m very thankful to have Chris work with me on this very legitimate credit.
John Malan
Private Practice Audiologist, Simi Valley CA
Chris really educated me about the process of getting a tax credit. Because I was skeptical, I had my accountant call her and check it out. My Accountant told me I would be crazy not to pursue this. I was shocked by the result. Chris is smart and professional and has a high care level, so I felt I was in good hands.

Chris Lake secured all the tax credits my two companies had coming from both the State and Federal governments. Chris is an expert in the field having work in Manufacturing R&D for years and authoring several important industry articles on R&D tax credits. Her company gave us a clear and easy to understand document on what we were to receive. Due to the time it took the government to pay us our tax credits, (and interest earned based on that time), ALL our checks exceeded the amounts we were told they would be. We still were only required to make payments based on the original smaller estimates, which was nice! I highly recommend Chris Lake and her company to recoup your tax credits earned.

DC/CEO | Health Atlast
This program gives full time employees free primary care, urgent care and generic medications. It also gives them extra money in their bank account without any cost to the company or them due to IRS Code Section 125. You can easily get a proposal of how much you would SAVE money wise and how much the staff would receive in their check extra with this insurance benefit. The nice thing is that it is a great benefit for the staff, creates loyalty, saves the company money and gives the employee greater money. It is an overall win-win for sure.

Thank you, thank you, thank you to the amazing Chris Lake, CEO of Active Tax Strategies, for her referral to a client who wanted to apply for a PPP loan (the client subsequently referred someone to me as well). Chris, as an expert in R & D tax credits, is brilliant. She has made me a favorite person among the people I have referred to her, as they have received tens of thousands of dollars in R & D tax credits (aka REFUNDS) as a result of the introductions.

I want to thank Chris for being Chris. Every time I go to a new prospect or opportunity, I have the confidence that I have someone who can bring value to that company, regardless of my company doing business with them or not. We can raise our value by bringing Chris into the mix and her demeanor is remarkable and pleasant. I do recommend to every and each of you out there to spend time with her and utilize her services for your business or your clients. They will be forever grateful. Thank you, Chris.

Chris’s work with us on R&D Tax Credits has been a fantastic opportunity. She is very professional, and very responsive concerning all questions and follow-ups. She made the process and materials very easy to understand and work through and was informative on all aspects of the R&D tax credit process.
We can’t speak more highly of her ease and professionalism in working with us. We highly recommend her services.
