Providing Relief From Tax Penalties

Many times when there is a dispute, the IRS assesses more than just taxes and interest, it also assesses penalties. The IRS uses penalties as a way to encourage all taxpayers to file a return and pay the amount due, and as punishment for those who do not. The most common penalties include:

Failure to file a return
Failure to pay taxes
Failure to properly report a tax liability
Fraudulent reporting
Failure to properly report taxpayer information

These penalties come with a range of costs, some as much as 75 percent of your tax debt.

We have successfully represented taxpayers in penalty disputes and have had the penalties reduced or removed altogether. We can do the same for you.
