Frequently Asked Questions About State & Federal Taxes

What will I pay for a tax attorney in DeSoto?

We charge flat fees for tax cases, which means you know the total cost before we start working. Simple matters typically cost a few hundred dollars, while complex IRS disputes involving multiple years or collection actions run several thousand. Call us for a free consultation to discuss your situation and get a specific quote for your case.

Can my CPA help with IRS issues or do I need a tax attorney?

CPAs prepare tax returns and maintain financial records. Tax attorneys defend you against IRS collection actions and represent you in disputes.

  • CPA Services: Tax return preparation, bookkeeping, financial statements
  • Tax Attorney Services: IRS collection defense, audit representation, legal privilege protection

The main legal difference is attorney-client privilege. Everything you tell a tax attorney is legally protected from IRS disclosure. CPAs don’t have this protection. Our DeSoto office handles IRS cases where legal representation is required.

What's the timeline for settling my tax problem with the IRS?

IRS resolution timelines depend on which program or relief option applies to your situation. Installment agreements typically take 30 to 60 days to establish. Penalty abatement requests usually resolve within 45 to 90 days. Offers in Compromise require 6 to 12 months for IRS review and acceptance.

We provide timeline estimates during your free consultation based on your specific tax issue, outstanding balance, and compliance history. Call our DeSoto office to discuss your case.
