Your Tax and IRS Questions Answered

What do tax attorneys in Jacksonville charge?

Tax attorneys in Jacksonville charge $300 to $750 for basic cases, $1,500 to $5,000 for audits, $7,500+ for complex work. We prevent penalties that double debt. We reduce debt by 70% to 95% through Offer in Compromise. Jacksonville business owners with sales tax issues see results. We guarantee satisfaction.

What are the consequences of not filing taxes for years?

Not filing taxes for years creates penalties of 5% monthly up to 25% of unpaid tax. The IRS files substitute returns without your deductions and has no time limit to collect.

Filing stops certain IRS actions and starts the 10-year collection period. We file your back returns, request penalty abatement, and establish current year payments.

Can a tax attorney get IRS penalties reduced?

Tax attorneys reduce IRS penalties through first-time penalty abatement requests, which have an 85% approval rate. Attorneys also request interest abatement when IRS processing delays exceed 45 days, which happens in audit cases and payment processing errors.

You have 30 days to respond to penalty notices to preserve your appeal rights. We file penalty abatement requests, document reasonable cause for late filing or payment, and pursue interest abatement for IRS delays that increased your debt.

What Are The Penalties For Not Filing FBAR?

If you missed FBAR, the IRS can fine $10,000 per year and more for willful cases under 31 U.S.C. §5321(a)(5). The rule applies once accounts exceed $10,000, even for trust beneficiaries, and global reporting makes detection easier.

We help Jacksonville clients file reasonable cause letters, gather five years of statements, and cut penalties while restoring compliance.

Can a regular tax preparer handle crypto taxes or do I need a specialist?

You need a specialist if you have DeFi income, staking rewards, or trades across multiple platforms beyond basic buying and selling. Specific identification cost basis saves the most tax by selecting your highest-cost coins for each sale. DeFi protocol developers claim research and development credits under IRC Section 41.

Wrapped token conversions like ETH to WETH count as taxable exchanges. Your specialist calculates gain or loss for each disposal after deducting transaction fees and gas costs. Document all transactions immediately with wallet addresses, timestamps, and fair market values to defend against IRS audits under Section 6662 accuracy standards.
