CPAs are licensed to practice in front of the IRS and some do a great job. Attorneys have an attorney-client privilege that accountants do not have. Also, as an attorney, I may be able to take your case to Tax Court, where taxpayers often get their best settlement. Accountants can not practice in Tax Court. Finally, attorneys are trained for adversary proceedings, while many accountants are great at filing paperwork, but do not know how to represent a client with a tax problem.
Yes. Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express.
No, in fact the IRS likes it when you hire an attorney to aid in you in resolving your tax debt. It often makes it easier for them to resolve the case.
Not likely, unless there is blatant fraud in your returns or you are a tax protestor. The best thing you can do is get current in your tax filings if you are behind.
If you call the guys you see on TV or hear on the radio, you will speak to a commissioned salesperson who will make you a bunch of promises that sound too good to be true- because they are. If you sign up with them, that is the last time you talk to that person. After that, you may have trouble getting someone on the telephone who knows anything about your case. Good luck if the IRS comes to your door and you need to speak to someone, especially if they are in a different time zone. My best advice is to Google the company with the word “scam”.
Interest, no. The IRS does not give an inch on interest. Penalties may be discharged under certain circumstances.
Give us a call and we can have your un-filed returns prepared. Then we will analyze your situation and figure out the best way to go forward.
Possibly. That's one of the standard things we look at in analyzing your case.
Your IRS debt is something that needs to be taken care of, but it doesn't mean you are a bad person. There are MANY people in the same position as you. Trust me, you will feel a lot better once we have put this matter behind you. If you are reading this, you have taken the important first steps to resolving the situation.
You can, but it's rarely a good idea, unless your tax debt is less than $10,000.00. The IRS is not your friend and they will not act in your best interest. I limit my client's communications with the IRS so that nothing wrong is said that can haunt you later.
