IRS Tax Relief

Our Tax Attorneys can help you get relief from your IRS or state back taxes

The IRS and the state do not even need to get a court judgment to freeze your bank accounts, file tax liens against your property, garnish your wages, seize your tax refunds or seize your assets. And that’s just the beginning of what they can do. Owing money to the IRS or the state is a different world from dealing with private collection agencies. Without a competent tax relief attorney negotiating on your behalf, government tax collectors will not go away. If you ignore them, you can find yourself losing everything you worked for – without much warning.

When you need help, you need it now, before your situation gets any worse. Here are some of the actions the IRS tax relief attorneys at Ayar Law can take on your behalf to protect your money and your property – and stop the harassment.

Releasing Tax Liens, Wage Garnishments and Bank Levies

If you don’t act when you owe money to the IRS or the state, you can easily find yourself the target of tax liens, garnished paychecks and frozen bank accounts. Even if these actions have already been taken against you, it is possible to get them reversed if you take action fast enough and speak with a qualified, focused tax attorney.

Not Collectible Status Stops the Collections Against You

Sometimes taxpayers find themselves in a position where they owe back taxes to the IRS or the state, but cannot afford to pay any taxes at all and still meet their basic living expenses. For these taxpayers, seeking “currently not collectible” (CNC) status is an option. If the IRS (or the state) approves your request, the debt does not go away but is be put on hold until such time you are able to pay.

Payment Plans

If you are able to make payments, Ayar Law can negotiate the best possible payment plan– including negotiating having your penalties and interest reduced or possibly even waived.

Tax Settlement / Offer in Compromise

Not everyone qualifies to settle “for pennies on your debt” as many large, national tax relief organizations advertise. Determining if you qualify for a tax settlement or offer in compromise requires careful analysis, so don’ be lured by unscrupulous organizations who lure in the unsuspecting, take their money and provide no relief in return. 61% of those who apply are turned down. Don’t be one of them.

Penalty Abatement

The IRS has discretion in assessing penalties, and a good tax attorney knows the limitations of this and also the procedures to follow to minimize your penalties. In general, the IRS can grant a penalty abatement if it falls into one of four categories: 1) reasonable cause; 2) statutory exceptions; 3) administrative waiver; or 4) correction of service error.

Innocent Spouse Relief

When married taxpayers file a joint tax return, both taxpayers are jointly and severally liable for the tax and any interests and penalties due on that tax, even if they get divorced later. Innocent Spouse Relief provides relief from additional tax you owe if your spouse or former spouse failed to report income, reported income improperly or claimed improper deductions or credits.
