​​Act in Haste, Repent in Leisure
​​
At first blush, the idea of dragging the IRS into court sounds exciting, like a modern David v. Goliath fairytale. In reality however, most people who squared off against the Federal Government regretted their choice, describing it as impulsive and damaging.
​​
The Winner’s Curse
​
The IRS can be extremely vindictive, and winning tax litigants are frequently rewarded with audits, penalties, surveillance and harassment. FYI, losing litigants receive the same lousy treatment plus court costs.
There's a Target on Your Back
The IRS investigates tax litigants. This means Forensic Accountants and Special Investigators will examine your tax returns, bank records, credit card statements, business transactions, mortgage and personal loan applications, vehicle and boat registrations, and anything else they can find. *If they discover underreported income, or evidence of intentional wrongdoing, you could be criminally prosecuted. Consequences include prison, penalties and financial restitution.
​
Bad Publicity is Bad Business
Court cases are public record, which means anyone can look up the details of your tax case and immediately know your business.
​
Be Good to Yourself
A negotiated settlement provides you with confidentiality, reduced conflict, and a guaranteed resolution. Our pragmatic approach to problem solving keeps you out of court and out of trouble. For prompt assistance, call (212) 974-3435.

Before You Leap
​
When it comes to large-dollar tax debt, most Tax Attorneys and CPAs focus exclusively on the underlying tax issue – which presumes your tax problem exists in a vacuum. This short-sighted approach to problem solving may jeopardize your business and cause problems for years to come.
See the Big Picture
Before we negotiate the terms of an IRS installment agreement, we identify and address important external issues, such as preserving lines of credit, your debt-to-income ratio, and loan covenants. This comprehensive approach to problem solving prioritizes immediate relief and long-term solutions – ensuring that your business stays in business.
