Protection from the Aggressive Collection Tactics of the IRS and California Tax Agencies

If you are in the process of IRS collections, or negotiations with California tax agencies regarding past due tax obligations you need the protection and guidance of Allen Barron’s experienced tax attorneys. The power of the IRS to seize assets, place liens on your property and levy your wages and bank accounts is formidable. California’s tax authorities and the IRS use varying tactics to collect back taxes and the associated penalties and interest. How can you stand up to them and protect your interests?

The fact is the IRS and California’s tax authorities are not perfect. In fact, our attorneys and tax experts are finding an increasing number of mistakes in their calculations, as well as how they apply penalty and interest obligations. All tax agencies are struggling to increase the revenues generated by business and personal tax returns, and their tactics are becoming increasingly creative and aggressive. Often, we help our clients to stand up to the IRS and demonstrate that they are in full compliance and do not owe the amount disputed by the collection agents. Even in the event of genuine exposure to debts associated with back taxes, penalties and interest we are able to work with the IRS and state tax authorities to minimize your exposure to liens and levies, and to structure a solution that helps to relieve you of your tax burdens and the associated collection efforts. If you are experiencing IRS collection efforts or owe a California tax agency we invite you to call us for a free consultation at 866-631-3470. We will work together to protect you and your assets, and to resolve the underlying issues.
