"IRS sent me letters saying I had to pay them back for a big tax refund I got. I was shocked because I did not get any type of refund. I could not figure out what was going on and I was scared. Silver Tax Group got the IRS to begin an investigation on my case and all the crazy letters stopped. Now I'm able to move forward because the identity theft defense was granted by the IRS – my Lawyers won." -Jerry

Tax Audit Defense

Tax audit lawyers who safeguard assets and negotiate favorable outcomes

IRS audits require strong legal representation. From correspondence audits to field audits, every case needs a clear strategy. With in-depth analysis and defense planning, our IRS audit attorneys correct discrepancies and safeguard taxpayer rights.

Unfiled tax return help.

Unfiled Tax Returns

Past due on filing taxes? Resolve back taxes with expert help

Filing overdue tax returns puts you back in control before penalties and interest add up. Ignoring CP59 notices or Substitute for Return assessments makes resolving tax issues harder, but acting quickly keeps more options open. Not every case requires full payment right away, but every case needs a clear strategy. Our tax law attorneys structure resolutions that fit your situation.

Tax Consulting

Ensure full tax compliance with smarter financial strategies

Lower tax bills, stronger tax skills, and better tax planning start with the right strategy. Tax return analysis, deduction tracking, and compliance planning all shape financial outcomes. Businesses and individuals rely on our Bakersfield tax consultants to create structured tax solutions that reduce liabilities, maximize savings, and support better financial decisions.
International tax strategies.

Offshore Assets & International Taxation

Offshore tax lawyers for cross-border financial compliance

If you have foreign accounts, trusts, or investments, keeping up with tax reporting is essential. IRS penalties for unreported offshore assets add up quickly, and forms like FBARs, Form 8938, and Form 3520 are not optional. Every step toward compliance protects what you have built, keeps filings accurate, and prevents unnecessary issues.
