Tax relief services are not one product. The IRS offers multiple tax debt relief programs, and which one fits your case depends on your income, assets, and filing history. A licensed Enrolled Agent walks every option with you and runs the one that costs you the least.
Explore this serviceTax resolution is the work of fixing an open IRS problem and getting collection to stop. When the IRS is sending letters, calling, or threatening to garnish wages, a tax resolution firm steps in, files Power of Attorney, and takes over from there. You do not talk to the IRS again unless you want to.
Learn moreTax preparation by IRS Enrolled Agents and CPAs. Federal, state, and local returns for individuals, sole proprietors, S-corps, partnerships, and C-corps. We handle the current year, prior-year amendments, and unfiled back-year returns. The same team that prepares your return represents you if the IRS has questions later.
Learn moreTax representation means a licensed professional speaks to the IRS on your behalf. Receiving an IRS notice is not the end of the world, but talking to the IRS without representation can turn a small problem into a large one. We file Power of Attorney on day one and handle every call, letter, and meeting from that point forward.
Learn moreIf you disagree with an IRS adjustment, you have a legal right to appeal. Most IRS appeals never get the attention they deserve because the taxpayer tries to handle them personally and the Office of Appeals officer compares the file against a professionally prepared one. We prepare the case, file the appeal under the right form, and argue it in writing or in conference.
Learn moreYes, you can negotiate with the IRS. The IRS publishes several formal programs that let you settle tax debt for less than you owe, pay over time, or pause collection entirely. Knowing which IRS negotiation tool to ask for, and how to package it, is half the battle.
Learn moreDelinquent taxes are any federal or state tax owed but not paid by the filing deadline. Unpaid taxes do not get smaller by waiting: penalties and interest compound, and the IRS escalates from notice to lien to levy on a predictable timeline. The good news is every step of that path is reversible if you act before a levy hits.
Learn moreAn IRS wage garnishment can take 25 percent or more of every paycheck until the debt is paid. A bank levy can freeze your account and send the balance to the IRS in 21 days. We negotiate IRS levy releases and wage garnishment relief, and that work starts the day you engage us.
Learn moreA federal tax lien is the IRS's legal claim against everything you own when you have unpaid tax debt. It is not the same as a levy: a lien is a claim, a levy is a seizure. The lien is what stops you from selling your house, refinancing, or getting clean credit. There are four ways to deal with an IRS tax lien, and which one fits depends on whether you can pay, need to sell, or want it off your record.
Learn moreBack taxes are unpaid federal or state taxes from prior years. The longer back taxes sit unpaid, the more penalty and interest compound on top of the original balance, and the closer the IRS moves to a wage garnishment or bank levy. We handle back taxes from one year old to twenty years old.
Learn moreUnfiled tax returns are the most common problem we fix, and the one people are most afraid to face. The good news: filing years of unfiled taxes is almost always better than the alternative. Nothing else with the IRS can move (no payment plan, no settlement, no levy release) until your missing returns are filed. We prepare and file every unfiled year, in the right order, and take the fear out of getting current.
Learn moreIf you received an IRS audit letter, do not panic and do not respond on your own. The first response sets the entire scope of the audit. IRS audit defense by a licensed tax representative keeps the audit narrow, prevents expansion to other years, and protects against the most expensive mistake: saying too much.
Learn moreAn Offer in Compromise is the IRS program that lets you settle tax debt for less than the full amount you owe. It is the real version of "settle for pennies on the dollar," but the IRS accepts it only when it agrees it cannot realistically collect more. Rejection rates are high when the offer is prepared without running the IRS formulas first. That is the part we do before anything gets filed.
Learn moreOn an older tax balance, penalties are often a large share of what you owe. Penalty abatement is the process of getting IRS penalties removed, either through First-Time Abatement when your compliance history is clean, or through reasonable cause when something outside your control caused the problem. When a penalty is removed, the interest charged on that penalty comes off with it.
Learn moreHow our tax relief help works
It starts with a free phone consultation. From there, we investigate your IRS file, then handle the resolution with the IRS on your behalf. Payment plans are available for every client.
We start with a free, confidential call to understand your situation, answer your questions, and tell you honestly whether we can help. No cost, no pressure, no obligation.
We file Power of Attorney (IRS Form 2848), pull your IRS account transcripts, and build a clear analysis of what is owed, your unfiled years, and the resolution programs you may qualify for.
After our analysis, we walk you through a clear proposal: the resolution program that fits your case, the work it will take, and your payment options. If you move forward, we prepare the filings and communicate with the IRS on your behalf to pursue the resolution.
