Who We Serve 

Our legal services are designed for clients facing serious tax challenges, including:

  • Small business owners facing payroll tax audits or IRS collection 

  • Contractors and gig workers misclassified or behind on estimated taxes 

  • High-net-worth individuals facing audit or fraud allegations

Common Tax Issues We Handle 

  • Missed returns—even unintentionally—can trigger penalties, substitute filings, or criminal investigations. We help clients reconstruct income, file accurately, and resolve long-standing compliance gaps. 

  • Owing back taxes comes with interest, penalties, and the risk of enforcement. We negotiate with the IRS to reduce liability, stop collection actions, and establish manageable repayment plans. 

  • Whether you’ve been hit with failure-to-file or accuracy penalties, relief may be available. We advocate for abatement based on reasonable cause, IRS error, or first-time penalty forgiveness. 

  • From audit notices to courtroom litigation, we represent clients at every stage. We manage records, defend audit positions, and escalate to appeals or Tax Court when necessary. 

  • We help eligible clients settle tax debt for less than owed, using legal and financial strategies that align with IRS guidelines and present a compelling case for approval. 

  • If you’re unable to pay anything without financial hardship, CNC status may be an option. We handle the application process and maintain compliance to prevent enforcement while under review. 

  • If your assets are at risk due to unpaid tax debt, we respond quickly. We work to lift liens, stop wage garnishments or bank levies, and resolve the underlying tax issues. 

  • Being investigated for fraud or evasion? Early legal defense is critical. We represent clients under IRS scrutiny to protect against criminal exposure and avoid escalation. 

  • Bankruptcy may offer relief from tax debt, depending on the type and age of the tax. We guide clients on how bankruptcy intersects with tax law—even though we do not file bankruptcies ourselves. 

  • When informal resolution fails, we take cases to Tax Court or Federal Court. We build strong legal defenses against overreaching assessments, collections, and IRS misconduct. 

Frequently Asked Questions 

  • You're not alone. The IRS focuses on voluntary compliance. We help clients catch up, file accurately, and avoid or reduce penalties—especially when they act before the IRS does.

  • Yes—if you qualify. We help clients explore the IRS Offer in Compromise program and submit persuasive applications based on legal and financial criteria.

  • Some tax debts can be discharged, depending on their type and age. We help you understand if your liabilities meet the legal criteria before you file. 

  • Contact a lawyer immediately. We handle audits, appeals, and criminal inquiries. Our early involvement often makes the biggest difference in outcome. 

  • Yes—but we can often stop or reverse enforcement. We negotiate alternatives like payment plans or CNC status to prevent financial damage.

  • Possibly. The IRS offers relief for first-time offenses and for those who can show reasonable cause. We build your case and request abatement where appropriate. 

  • Tax law is high-stakes. While you can represent yourself, an experienced attorney can protect your rights, reduce what you owe, and prevent escalation—especially in audits or criminal cases.
