We refer to this area as "Tax Controversy." Indeed, that's what it is! Whether you owe more taxes than you can ever pay; or, the IRS claims you owe, and you do not; or, you are not sure whether you owe, we have more than 24 years experience at the following:

For taxes you owe:
  • Liens and levies
  • Penalty and interest reductions or abatements
  • Appeals when seizure of assets or business is imminent
  • Long-term installment agreements to spread your taxes over several years
  • Offers in Compromise to reduce the taxes you owe--permanently!
  • Bankruptcy workouts
  • Corporate and business reorganizations
  • Innocent spouse relief
  • 100% trust fund penalty for business payroll taxes
For taxes you may not owe:
  • Review of IRS proposed assessments
  • Appeal of IRS audits, decisions, or assessments
