Audit "Representative(s)" here include?

Good evening,

In this agreement, there are limitations clearly stated such as: "TaxAudit does not provide legal assistance, nor represent our members in Federal or State Court, including Tax Court."

However, I have another question: Does "Representative(s)" here include them representing me in attending meetings or direct hearings to protect my rights (as per the law) before the IRS & State agency?

Yes, as per the agreement you attached: "TaxAudit will professionally defend a covered federal or state income tax audit or notice from the time of the first notice to its completion, subject to the Audit Defense Plan Limitations and Exclusions described below. This includes any Audit that arises during the Period of Membership. All scheduling of appointments, telephone calls and correspondence will be handled by the assigned Audit Representative(s). We will meet or correspond with the auditor on your behalf and will defend you through the highest level of appeals, subject to the terms herein."
