Taxation Practice Center

When taxes go unpaid, the IRS can take aggressive collection actions. We help clients stop or resolve:

• Tax liens against property
• Wage garnishments
• Bank account levies
• Seizure of assets

Our team works quickly to negotiate releases, establish payment plans, or challenge improper assessments. Acting early can often prevent a levy or lien from ever taking effect.

Payroll tax problems are among the most serious issues a business can face. The IRS treats withheld taxes, known as trust fund taxes, as funds held in trust for employees.
Failure to remit these payments can lead to:

• Heavy penalties
• Personal liability for owners or responsible employees
• Potential civil or criminal enforcement

We help businesses and individuals address payroll tax liabilities, reduce exposure, and negotiate settlements or payment plans that protect both the business and its leadership.

The IRS assesses penalties for late filing, late payment, accuracy issues, and more. Many taxpayers assume penalties cannot be reduced, but that is not always the case.

We evaluate whether you qualify for:

• Reasonable cause penalty abatement
• First-time abatement
• Penalty reconsideration

Valid reasons may include medical emergencies, natural disasters, reliance on incorrect professional advice, or records lost due to events outside your control.

Our firm provides professional representation in tax controversies, ensuring your rights are protected throughout the process.

As an authorized IRS e-filer, we prepare and file audit-guaranteed tax returns for individuals and businesses, backed by free IRS audit representation for returns we prepare.

If you owe the IRS, there are legal options for reducing or resolving your debt. We handle:

• Offers in Compromise (settlements for less than the amount owed)
• Installment agreements
• Currently Not Collectible status
• Innocent spouse relief
• Audit reconsideration
• Tax Court litigation (where necessary)

We assess your financial picture, prepare the required documentation, and negotiate directly with the IRS to pursue the outcome you need

Joint tax returns can create joint liability, meaning one spouse may be held responsible for the other’s errors or omissions.

If you were unaware of unreported income, false deductions, or unpaid tax balances, you may qualify for:

• Innocent Spouse Relief
• Separation of Liability Relief
• Equitable Relief

We help clients present strong, well-documented cases to protect themselves from unfair tax liability.

We assist individuals and businesses with a full range of federal tax concerns, including:

• Unfiled returns
• Disputes over deductions or credits
• Incorrect assessments
• Refund claims
• Classification issues (independent contractor vs. employee)

If your return has triggered an IRS inquiry, or if you believe an error was made, we can evaluate your situation and outline your options.

Every taxpayer has rights when dealing with the IRS, including the right to:

• Be informed
• Privacy and confidentiality
• Challenge IRS positions and appeal decisions
• A fair and just tax system
• Representation

We ensure these rights are upheld and help clients navigate the IRS process—from initial notice to final resolution.
