Unfiled Tax Returns Can Have Serious Consequences

The IRS may file a substitute return for you, one that lacks the deductions or tax credits you rightfully deserve. This can create a cascade of tax problems:

  • Failure-to-file penalties can add thousands of dollars in unpaid taxes while interest compounds daily.
  • Potential refunds are lost forever if you wait too long to file a tax return.
  • Lenders reject loan applications. Without proof of filed taxes, your financial plans grind to a halt.
  • Valuable tax credits go unclaimed. This can mean leaving thousands of dollars on the table from sources like the child tax credit and other deductions that could save you money.

Our team helps individual taxpayers and business owners face these tax issues head-on with practical solutions that resolve the matter for good.

How We Can Help

Filing Your Tax Returns

We work with you or your tax professional to reconstruct records for income and expenses. That means tracking down W-2s, 1099s for miscellaneous income, unemployment records, and other relevant documents. We make sure your returns account for every legal deduction to determine the lowest possible tax liability.

Resolving the Amount Due

Once your returns are filed, we know the exact amount you owe. If you can’t pay in full, we negotiate with the IRS. Our attorneys can secure manageable installment agreements, seek an offer in compromise to settle for less, or request currently not collectible status if you’re facing hardship.

Penalty Relief

If you have a reasonable cause for not filing, we can ask the IRS to reduce or remove penalties. Also, if it is the first time you failed to file, we may be able to get the IRS to remove the penalty even if you have no reason for filing late.
