Comprehensive Tax Services and IRS Solutions in Arlington, TX

Tax Audit Representation (State & Federal)

Did the IRS select your return for examination? Our Arlington tax attorneys provide full audit representation, handling all IRS communications and building documentation strategies that challenge weak adjustments. Clients typically see proposed changes reduced by 40% or more, with many audits closing without additional tax owed.

Tax Debt Relief Services

Owe the IRS? Our Arlington tax attorneys represent you directly before the IRS. We handle debt negotiations, penalty abatement requests, and collection defense. Clients regularly secure reduced balances or payment terms they can afford. We respond to IRS notices within 48 hours to prevent escalation. Most cases reach full resolution and compliance within 60-90 days.

IRS Tax Returns & Unfiled Tax Filings

When you have years of unfiled federal returns, the IRS responds with penalties reaching 25% of your balance and reserves criminal prosecution for willful cases. Arlington residents with delinquent returns resolve their situation through voluntary disclosure programs. Attorney representation reconstructs income records, calculates accurate liability, identifies missed deductions, and negotiates penalty abatement to restore IRS compliance.

IRS Defense Against Penalties & Collections

An IRS levy is a seizure of your bank accounts or wages, and it demands immediate response. Our tax attorneys file Collection Due Process hearing requests, negotiate installment agreements, or pursue Currently Not Collectible status. With legal representation in Arlington, TX, you have an attorney who stops wage garnishment and prevents asset seizure before enforcement deadlines pass.

Small Business Taxes

Business tax debt doesn’t stay with the business. The IRS holds owners personally liable for payroll tax obligations and trust fund penalties. Arlington business owners with unfiled returns, audits, or IRS notices need legal representation to pursue penalty abatement, restore compliance, and resolve the debt.

International Taxes and FBARs

FBAR penalties reach $100,000 or 50% of your account balance per violation, whichever is greater. A single unreported foreign account creates years of growing liability. Our tax attorneys handle voluntary disclosure filings, FATCA compliance, offshore penalty negotiation, and audit defense for international tax matters.

Tax Attorneys in Arlington For Texas and Federal IRS Issues

Texas Comptroller audits against Arlington businesses require immediate response when sales tax discrepancies, franchise tax errors, or mixed beverage tax violations surface. Tarrant County property tax liens block your ability to sell or refinance until you pay or successfully protest the valuation. Our attorneys stop collection actions from the IRS, Comptroller, and county before they escalate.

Arlington’s combined sales tax rate reaches 8.25%, and the Comptroller audits entertainment venues, hotels, and restaurants near AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Field frequently. The city’s high tourism volume creates complex reporting situations where businesses misapply exemptions or underreport on multi-use transactions. When state and federal agencies pursue collection simultaneously, you need attorneys who handle all three.
