While some people facing minor IRS debts might try to negotiate payment plans or solutions on their own, most people can’t get the most favorable outcomes on their own. Dealing with the IRS directly can be difficult, and they prefer working with tax attorneys. We have the necessary tools, expertise, and direct access to the IRS, ensuring that we secure the best possible results for our clients.
Yes. While accountants and enrolled agents can handle tax filings, a tax attorney provides legal protection and negotiation power that others cannot. If you’re facing IRS collections, audits, levies, garnishments, or large tax debt, an attorney can represent you directly before the IRS and in court if needed. Having a tax attorney ensures attorney–client privilege, experienced legal strategy, and the best chance of resolving your tax problem for good.
Immediately. The longer you wait, the more penalties, interest, and enforcement actions can pile up. The IRS and state taxing authorities move fast with wage garnishments, bank levies, and liens. Acting quickly gives us more options to protect your assets, stop aggressive collections, and negotiate a resolution that works for you.
Yes. We assist with both IRS and state tax issues. Each state has its own rules and collection methods, and ignoring state tax problems can be just as damaging as IRS issues. Whether it’s unfiled returns, state garnishments, or back taxes, we have the knowledge to handle both federal and state cases.
Absolutely. One of the first things we do is contact the IRS or state taxing authority to stop or release a levy or garnishment. Timing is critical—acting quickly often means we can pause or reverse collections while we work on a long-term solution, such as an installment agreement, Offer in Compromise, or hardship status.
