Our Story

When Dan Martinez founded the firm in Corpus Christi, Texas in 1991, after a career as an auditor for the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, it became the first of its kind in that city. The firm gained a major boost when Dan moved the firm to Sugar Land in 1997 and was retained by Exxon Mobil Co. (NYSE:XOM) to evaluate sales and use tax payments for their Beaumont refinery. The contract was followed by a similar agreement with Houston based Shell Oil company.

Clients hire Dan Martinez & Associates to perform audit defense projects, overpayments and refund reviews, managed audits and predominate use studies that could affect the results of tax examinations.  The firm’s primary focus is on sales and use tax analysis for manufactures, refineries and chemical companies however they have served all types of industries.
