Tax Returns & Filing
Federal and California returns prepared, reviewed by a second person, and filed electronically.
IRS Problems
You do not have to deal with the IRS yourself
Letters, audits, back taxes, liens and levies — answered by Enrolled Agents licensed to represent you.
Our Enrolled Agents are licensed by the U.S. Treasury to represent taxpayers before the IRS in any state. Sign a Form 2848 and the letters, the phone calls and the deadlines become ours to manage. Send us the notice before you do anything else — we will read it and tell you what it actually says, at no charge.
What we do
Every service in this area
-
IRS Representation & Audit Defense
Sign a Form 2848 and every letter, every phone call and every deadline becomes ours to manage.
-
Back Taxes & Unfiled Returns
Unfiled returns and unpaid balances feel permanent. They are not. Almost every case has a defined, legal path to resolution — the hard part is starting it.
-
Payroll Tax & Trust Fund Penalty
Unpaid payroll tax is treated differently from every other balance — it can be assessed against you personally, not just the company.
-
Offer in Compromise
An Offer in Compromise is a real programme with a real formula. We run that formula before you pay anyone to file one, and we tell you the answer either way.
-
Installment Agreements & Payment Plans
An instalment agreement will not reduce what you owe, but it stops the collection machine and puts the balance on a schedule you can live with.
-
Penalty Abatement & Reasonable Cause
Penalties and the interest they carry can be a third or more of an IRS balance. Some of it is removable, and nobody removes it unless you ask.
-
Liens, Levies & Wage Garnishment
A lien is a claim on what you own. A levy takes it. The difference between the two is usually a letter you had thirty days to answer.
-
California EDD & CDTFA Audits
An EDD or CDTFA audit reaches back years, applies a method rather than counting, and lands on businesses that never had a federal problem at all.
