I’m a former IRS agent in revenue officer who is a tax instructor for the IRS tax settlement program called the offer in compromise.
Call us today for a free initial tax consultation and find out if you qualify for the new IRS tax settlement program.
We make it our business to achieve the highest possible results for our clients. There are several IRS Programs available to resolve your IRS case.
We will find the program that best fits your needs.
What we immediately do to help all clients:
1. We immediately send a power of attorney to the IRS letting them know we are now your representative. You will never have to speak them.
2. We will make sure your tax returns are filed and current. If they are not filed, we will prepare and file your tax returns.
