Work With The Tax Law Firm In Fresno That Gets Results

Attorneys can negotiate, represent you in federal court, and invoke attorney-client privilege. Enrolled agents and CPAs cannot do any of that when your IRS case turns serious. That gap matters when you owe back taxes, have unfiled returns, or face IRS penalties on unreported income.

Our tax law firm brings 45 or more years of combined experience to every case we handle in Fresno. Every document we file with the IRS goes to your inbox the same day we submit it. Call today and leave knowing exactly where your case stands.

Every Tax Service Fresno Individuals And Businesses Need In One Place

Tax Audit Representation (State & Federal)

An IRS audit notice does not have to grow into a larger problem. Our attorneys in Fresno handle all IRS correspondence, prepare your documentation, and respond directly to examiner requests. We protect your legal rights, work to contain the scope, and keep your appeal options open throughout. Results depend on your specific records and circumstances.

Tax Debt Relief Services

Tax debt grows faster than most people expect, and the IRS does not send many warnings before collection starts. Our attorneys in Fresno negotiate offer in compromise settlements, set up IRS payment plans, pursue penalty abatement, and request currently not collectible status where it applies. Most people have options they have never been told about, and what you qualify for depends on your specific financial situation.

IRS Tax Returns & Unfiled Tax Filings

Unfiled returns put you at risk of IRS assessments that rarely reflect what you actually owe. Our attorneys in Fresno will reconstruct your records, identify deductions, and negotiate penalty abatement to restore IRS compliance before back taxes grow. Getting ahead of this with an attorney keeps the IRS from setting the terms on your behalf.

IRS Defense Against Penalties & Collections

A tax lien, an IRS levy, wage garnishment, and asset seizure can follow each other quickly once IRS collection starts in Fresno. Our attorneys request Collection Due Process hearings and pursue Currently Not Collectible status to stop enforcement before the next step triggers. Timely intervention determines what options stay on the table.

Small Business Taxes

Small businesses in Fresno dealing with payroll tax problems or IRS audit notices often have compliance gaps that grow faster than they expect. Our attorneys resolve trust fund penalties, negotiate business tax debt, and bring accounts current before the IRS takes the next step. The earlier you act, the more options you have.

International Taxes and FBARs

Are your foreign accounts fully reported and your FBAR filings current? Many people are not certain, and offshore penalties for missed filings can exceed the account balance. Our attorneys resolve unfiled FBARs, FATCA violations, and unreported accounts through streamlined filing procedures before the IRS acts.

Frequently Asked Questions About State & Federal Taxes

What does it cost to hire a tax attorney in Fresno?

Tax attorney costs in Fresno depend on what your case actually involves. Simple matters run a few hundred dollars. Complex IRS disputes often reach several thousand. Most firms bill by the hour and the final number keeps climbing. We charge flat fees so you know the exact cost before we do anything. Call for a free consultation and get a clear quote the same day.

Should I hire a tax attorney or a CPA for my IRS problem?

A CPA handles the numbers on your return. But when the IRS sends collection notices or threatens your wages, a tax attorney takes over.

  • CPA role: tax preparation, financial records, and standard reporting
  • Attorney role: legal representation, IRS notices, and protection against collection actions

What you tell a CPA has no legal protection from the IRS. What you tell your attorney does. That privilege is something no CPA can offer.

Our tax attorneys in Fresno work alongside CPAs when a case involves both legal and accounting decisions. That includes complex IRS disputes where the numbers and the law both matter.

How long does it take to resolve an IRS problem with a tax attorney?

Most IRS problems resolve in 30 days to 24 months depending on the case. A tax lien response or installment agreement can close in 30 to 90 days. An Offer in Compromise or formal IRS dispute typically runs 12 to 24 months. Organized records from the start keep your timeline as short as possible.

Having your financial documents ready before your first call cuts time off the process. Schedule a free case review and we’ll give you a specific timeline estimate.
