Press Release Summary: The Tax Lady Roni Deutch created an internship program for
her law firm, Roni Lynn Deutch, A Professional Tax Corporation, allowing students to
learn more about tax law through real life work experience.

Press Release Body: North Highlands, CA - For the second year in a row, Roni Lynn
Deutch, A Professional Tax Corporation has implemented a summer internship program
for local students interested in learning about tax law.

"The summer internship program my law firm offers is the perfect way for students
hoping to attend law school to get real life experience with tax law," notes Roni
Deutch. "By coming to work at my firm, the interns are able to gain prospective on
tax law, as well as an opportunity to 'rub shoulders' with, and ask questions of,
attorneys who work in tax law."

During the summer months of 2008, four interns worked for Ms. Deutch's law firm. The
interns all received two weeks of training before being assigned to one of the
firm's legal teams where they performed a variety of tasks related to the
preparation of client files for IRS negotiations.

"The interns learned how to perform all the same duties as the full time
assistants," notes John Wetenkamp, Senior Attorney at Roni Lynn Deutch, A
Professional Tax Corporation. "They process incoming documentation sent to us by our
clients and help to prepare the clients' files for negotiations with the IRS. They
also review and process IRS mail as needed. The interns have also been instrumental
in helping the law firm keep pace on work relating to creating the electronic client
files."

The internship program lasted the entire summer. Some of the interns were able to
work full-time, five days a week, while others chipped in part-time or only for part
of the summer. Regardless, all received a lesson in what it takes to provide service
to paying clients.

"In school you're always so focused on how a teacher or a judge sees things that it
is easy to disregard the perspective of the client and other third parties,"
continued Wetenkamp. "Working at this firm gives the interns the unique opportunity
to see, hear, and experience how the legal process unfolds from the client
representative's perspective, as well as the client's perspective. It is important
to be able to understand, or at least empathize with, all sides of the issue both in
law school and as an attorney."

"I learned a lot about the field of tax law and gained hands on experience with real
life tax law," claims Anthony Cummings of California State University - Sacramento.
"It has been rewarding to play a part in helping people resolve their tax
liabilities. Plus, I really enjoyed working in the law firm's laid back yet
productive environment."

"Our practice is very deadline-driven, and the interns have worked hard this
summer," continued Wetenkamp. "They have taken some of the pressure off the law
firm's full-time employees. I believe this has allowed us to focus a little more
time on providing our clients with the outstanding service they deserve."

"Given the program's success," stated Ms. Deutch, "I am looking forward to offering
this program in the summers to follow. It gives prospective attorneys a worthwhile
experience and guidance, while giving my law firm and our clients dedicated and
interested workers. I cannot think of a better trade-off."

"Working at a private law firm before law school makes sense," continued Ms. Deutch.
"It gives interns a chance to get their feet wet, experiencing the work environment
first hand. It also provides them some perspective of what it is like in the real
world before taking the law school plunge."

Millions of people recognize tax attorney Roni Deutch as The Tax Lady. She has been
helping taxpayers nationwide resolve their tax liabilities for seventeen years. As
an industry leader, she has saved her clients tens of millions of dollars and has
helped thousands of families settle their back taxes.
