The average hourly rate for tax attorneys in Dayton often translates into flat-fee cases ranging from $300 to $750 for basic notice responses, $1,500 to $5,000 for audits or penalty abatement, and $7,500 to $20,000 or more for complex litigation. These fees are far less than the cost of DIY mistakes, which can add 25% penalties and daily interest if deadlines are missed.
Our services include cryptocurrency tax compliance and defense, along with real estate investor reporting issues that often trigger IRS reviews. We focus on solving problems before they grow into larger liabilities.
The first thing you should do is prepare and file your overdue tax returns to become compliant with the IRS. The IRS generally requires you to file the last six years of returns to be considered in good standing. This is the most important step toward resolving the issue and stopping penalties from growing.
We can help you determine if your situation needs immediate action to avoid collections. Our team will also see if you qualify for a manageable payment plan and will prepare your returns to help reduce penalties, bringing you relief from the stress of unfiled taxes.
Tax attorneys can remove IRS penalties from your debt through penalty abatement but cannot eliminate interest except when the underlying tax is erased. IRC Section 6404 allows the IRS to abate penalties for reasonable cause, including first-time filing mistakes, medical emergencies, and documented financial hardships.
Innocent spouse relief removes penalties from joint returns when one spouse created the tax debt without the other’s knowledge. You have 30 days to respond to IRS penalty notices before they become harder to dispute. We analyze your penalty notices, prepare abatement requests with required documentation, and negotiate directly with IRS appeals officers.
Avoid IRS penalties by filing amended returns immediately and paying unreported crypto taxes before the IRS contacts you about missing income. Short-term crypto gains face your regular income tax rate up to 37%, while DeFi developers can claim R&D credits against their protocol income.
