Tax Services Our Jacksonville Attorneys Always Deliver With Results

Tax Audit Representation (State & Federal)

An IRS audit notice demands a response. Our Jacksonville attorneys defend you through tax audit representation. We take over all correspondence, prepare your documentation, and challenge examination findings when they’re wrong. If the audit proposes additional tax, we file reconsideration requests or appeals. Your result depends on your records, but representation prevents scope expansion.

Tax Debt Relief Services

IRS letters pile up. Your paycheck gets garnished. Your bank account freezes. Our Jacksonville attorneys stop this by negotiating settlements that lower your IRS debt, establishing IRS payment plans, or securing currently not collectible status. We release levies, stop garnishments, and pursue penalty abatement. Your qualification depends on your finances, but representation ends the collection chaos.

IRS Tax Returns & Unfiled Tax Filings

The IRS already knows you haven’t filed. Our Jacksonville attorneys understand what voluntary disclosure requires. We reconstruct your income from available records, identify deductions, calculate your actual back taxes, and negotiate penalty abatement. This restores IRS compliance while avoiding criminal exposure.

IRS Defense Against Penalties & Collections

When the IRS issues a levy or tax lien, your credibility matters. Our Jacksonville attorneys defend you by requesting Collection Due Process hearings, negotiating installment agreements, pursuing Currently Not Collectible status, and filing Offers in Compromise. Professional intervention stops wage garnishments and prevents asset seizure.

Small Business Taxes

Payroll tax problems and IRS audits can threaten your Jacksonville business. Our attorneys prevent trust fund penalties, resolve business tax debt, and maintain tax compliance. We handle unfiled returns, defend federal and state audits, negotiate settlements, and pursue penalty abatement before enforcement escalates.

International Taxes and FBARs

FBAR means Foreign Bank Account Report, required annually if your foreign accounts exceeded $10,000 at any time. Our attorneys handle FBAR compliance, offshore penalty mitigation, and FATCA reporting. We resolve unfiled reports, unreported accounts, international audits, and penalty assessments through voluntary disclosure and streamlined voluntary disclosure.

Frequently Asked Questions About State & Federal Taxes

How much does a Jacksonville tax attorney cost?

Jacksonville clients pay based on case complexity. Filing compliance and simple penalty abatement start at $400 to $1,500. IRS audit representation, Offer in Compromise submissions, or resolving $50,000-plus in tax debt costs $2,500 to $6,500. Every case gets a flat-fee quote before we start. Call for a free consultation to get your specific number.

What's the difference between a tax attorney and a CPA?

What separates them? CPAs handle tax preparation and financial reporting. Tax attorneys handle legal disputes, IRS enforcement, and provide attorney-client privilege when the IRS sends collection notices or threatens your wages.

  • CPAs handle tax prep and financial records
  • Tax attorneys provide legal representation and protection against IRS collections

When you’re facing IRS enforcement, you need protection that goes beyond accounting. An attorney gives you attorney-client privilege. That’s a legal shield your CPA can’t offer. Our Jacksonville attorneys often work with CPAs when cases need both.

How long does it take to settle with the IRS using an attorney?

90% of IRS cases resolve within 12 months when you hire a tax attorney. The process starts immediately. Simple installment agreements take 30 to 90 days, but complex negotiations like Offer in Compromise or audit appeals can take 6 to 12 months depending on IRS backlog.
