I was drowning in tax debt and honestly terrified of the IRS, but Joe came in like a seasoned veteran and handled it. From our first phone call he spoke in clear, reassuring language, explaining every step so I never felt lost or embarrassed. [...] In the end Joe reduced what I owed to a fraction of the original amount, and set up a payment plan I can actually afford, [...] I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Dealing with the IRS after five years of unfiled tax returns and [...] in back taxes was terrifying. [...] They were super clear, acted fast, and managed to get my penalties reduced [...] Thanks to them, I'm finally back on track.
Me and my husband were desperate for answers an we are so beyond thankful for this team [...] they not only answered all of our questions and took the stress away but handled all of our debt with the IRS.
We had a tax issue and they handled it. Our balance was reduced by $20,000, couldn’t be more thankful for [...] and his team.
[...] He saved me thousands, was a great communicator and didn't drag this nightmare on and on.

Questions
Common questions about tax resolution
What is tax resolution?
Working out an open IRS issue: a balance, unfiled returns, a levy or an audit. It starts with your IRS records and ends with an arrangement with the IRS.
How long does it take?
It depends on the case. A payment plan can often be set up within weeks; an offer in compromise often takes many months. You hear the expected steps in the consultation.
Can you help a business?
Yes. Business tax debt, payroll taxes and the trust fund recovery penalty are part of the work, next to individual cases.
What does the consultation cost?
The first consultation is free. Call (833) 442-9877 and tell us what the IRS sent you.
