Tax Resolution Representation

What can a Tax Resolution company offer me that I can't do for myself? The IRS has a toll free help line to assist taxpayers with everything from filing old returns to settling tax liability.

First you must understand, the IRS operates in the manner that best serves the US Treasury. Once tax liability is assessed the IRS wants to resolve your case as quickly as possible and move on to the next file. This means getting as much as possible as soon as possible! When an Enrolled Agent negotiates on your behalf they know the IRS and what will work in your best interest. There are a number of potential options in settling a tax debt and the Enrolled Agent is there to tell you what your options are. Think of it like this, if you were charged in a court of law for a major offense you would likely hire an attorney to represent you. Many consider the IRS to be the single most powerful law enforcement agency in the world and when dealing with them you need to be prepared with someone with the expertise to represent you. There are countless stories of taxpayers who made things worse by handling it themselves.
