About tax relief in Fort Lauderdale

What we see in Fort Lauderdale. ~185,000 residents, 1.9M+ in Broward County.

Fort Lauderdale and Broward County share many of Miami's tax patterns: high real estate values, a strong self-employed and 1099 workforce, large hospitality and marine industries, and a steady inflow of transplants from higher-tax states. The result is a mix of federal IRS cases ranging from back tax debt to high-stakes audits.

Florida has no state income tax, so Broward residents face federal IRS issues only. For Fort Lauderdale businesses, particularly hospitality, retail, and marine, the Florida Department of Revenue handles state taxes like sales tax and reemployment tax separately. We handle the federal IRS side.

Our office is in West Palm Beach, about 45 minutes north on I-95. Fort Lauderdale clients can drive in for an initial consultation when it helps, or work with us entirely remotely. IRS representation is federal, so location does not affect our representation rights.

Local tax problems

Common tax problems we see in Fort Lauderdale.

IRS issues do not pick by zip code, but local industry mix shapes which problems show up most. Here is what we see come through from Fort Lauderdale and Broward County.

Self-employed Fort Lauderdale professionals with unfiled returns

Real estate, hospitality, marine industry, and contractor 1099 workers across Broward arrive most often with unfiled years and an IRS notice already in hand.

Offer in Compromise for Broward County residents

Broward's cost-of-living allowables under IRS OIC formulas are above national medians, which can move qualification math in your favor.

Frequently asked

Tax relief in Fort Lauderdale: common questions.

Do I need to come to your office to work on my Fort Lauderdale tax case?

No. IRS representation is federal, so location does not affect our ability to file Power of Attorney, pull transcripts, prepare returns, or negotiate. Most Fort Lauderdale clients work with us by phone, secure document portal, and video. If you want to drive to our West Palm Beach office for the initial consultation, you are welcome to.

There is an IRS lien on my Fort Lauderdale home. Can I still sell or refinance?

Often yes, but it takes preparation. A federal tax lien attaches to the property, and the IRS has formal procedures for discharging a lien from a sale or subordinating it for a refinance. Lien assistance is one of our nine core services: we prepare the application and work the negotiation, and because the IRS decides each one, we start well before your closing date.

I crew on yachts out of Fort Lauderdale and got paid on 1099s for years I never filed. Where do I start?

You start with transcripts, which show every 1099 reported under your Social Security number. We file the missing years with the deductions crew work actually carries, then negotiate whatever balance remains through the program your numbers support. The marine industry produces more of these cases than almost any other local trade.

How quickly can you start working on my Fort Lauderdale case?

A representative reaches out within minutes after you submit. Power of Attorney can be filed the same day, which directs IRS contact through us instead of you. Resolution timelines vary by case; we do not advertise a fixed number because it would not be accurate.

Do you take cases under $10,000 in tax debt?

We generally focus on clients with at least $10,000 in federal IRS tax debt or significant unfiled tax years. Every case is reviewed individually before we say yes or no. If we are not the right fit, we tell you and point you to who is.
