Five Alarming Tactics Used by Dishonest Tax Relief Companies

Posted 1/19/2010 10:33:01 AM

Unfortunately, there are many dishonest tax debt resolution companies. Over the years, our law firm has heard hundreds of horror stories about these dishonest companies and their practices. To help consumers avoid being taken advantage of by these companies, we have put together a list of five alarming tactics employed by some of these companies that you should be wary of before you retain one of them.

1. Cold Calling Solicitation

Because of high sales demands, some tax debt resolution companies have turned to cold calling in order to solicit new clients. This is alarming because unpaid taxes are not something most people want to freely disclose. Having a stranger leave you an unwelcome message regarding your tax debts can be intrusive and discomforting. These companies may also use half-truths to try and scare you into believing that immediate action is required by you to resolve your tax debt.

2. Guarantees

Some tax debt resolution companies represent that they can obtain a settlement offer with the IRS for significantly less than what a taxpayer may owe to try and convince taxpayers to retain their services. However, don’t be fooled. No one can guarantee that the IRS will accept your settlement offer. Whether the IRS will accept a settlement offer, otherwise known as an Offer in Compromise, or another tax debt resolution depends on each taxpayer’s unique financial situation, tax liability, and tax filing compliance. The IRS has strict guidelines for some types of tax debt resolutions and the IRS will not accept a particular tax debt resolution if a taxpayer’s financial situation does not meet the established guidelines.

3. No Pre-Analysis, No Attorney Review

Many tax debt resolution companies will sign up new clients without knowing anything about their financial situation. We refuse to sign up any new clients prior to performing a free and confidential tax analysis. In order to perform the tax analysis, our law firm asks a series of questions to obtain an understanding of a taxpayer’s unique financial situation. The tax analysis is performed by a tax attorney. After reviewing a taxpayer’s financial information, a tax attorney will recommend which particular tax debt resolution would be the most appropriate for the taxpayer. Unfortunately, performing a tax analysis for a taxpayer and providing the taxpayer with tax resolution options prior to enrolling the taxpayer does not appear to be a common practice with many of the tax debt resolution companies.

4. Additional Fees for Paperwork Errors

Recently, a potential client informed our law firm that another tax debt resolution company was charging additional fees because the taxpayer failed to correctly fill out the company’s confusing paperwork. This was very disturbing to the taxpayer given the volume of the documents and the complexity of the information requested. Needless to say, the taxpayer refused to pay the fees and contacted our law firm about our services.

5. False Information to Enrolled Clients

Taxpayers should be wary of any tax debt resolution company who shares information about a taxpayer’s representation by another company. For example, a client of our law firm reported being contacted by a salesperson from another company who told her that our law firm no longer wanted to represent her. The salesperson further advised that his company would be taking over so the taxpayer needed to enroll with his company. Do not fall for this tactic. Always contact the company you are working with to verify that you remain a client of theirs before signing up with a new tax debt resolution company. Otherwise, you may find that you paid two companies to provide the service same.

California Senior Citizen Loses Source Of Income During IRS Negotiations

Posted 12/30/2009 12:08:39 PM

Madge of Cathedral City, CA called Roni Deutch’s law firm after she ran into serious tax problems. Although she retained the firm to negotiate an Installment Agreement with the IRS, her financial situation changed during negotiations and she became an ideal candidate for placement into the IRS’s Currently Not Collectible status.

“This case took nearly two years to complete from start to finish,” recalls John Wetenkamp, the attorney who negotiated with the IRS on Madge’s behalf. “She retained our firm in December 2007 to negotiate an affordable Installment Agreement with the IRS. Unfortunately, Madge lost her source of income during the negotiation process, which she let our firm know about right away. Given the change in circumstances, we advised her that the best resolution was to have her account placed into Currently Not Collectible status.”

“Madge agreed with the change in direction,” continues Wetenkamp. “However, because of the change in circumstances, we had to collect updated financial information from her. It was around this time that the IRS imposed a levy on her social security income, which caused a serious financial hardship. Once all the tax returns had been filed (per IRS rules), we contacted the IRS to begin negotiations. We provided the financial information and documentation requested by the IRS and after a couple of follow-up calls, we received confirmation in October 2009 that her account had been placed into Currently Not Collectible status. The social security levy was also released and Madge was able to go back on her feet financially.”

“My experience with Roni Deutch and her staff was a positive one,” explains Madge. “The firm stayed with me for over a year and a half and continued to work with me even after my loss of income in the midst of negotiations. All my calls were answered or returned immediately. Everyone was very courteous and patient, and I am so very pleased with the results.”

It was my pleasure to inform her that her resolution was accepted after months of work.”

“I am so grateful for the firm’s help,” notes Victoria. “All of my questions were answered and I was guided all the way through the process of negotiating with the IRS. I cannot say enough great things about Roni Deutch and her employees. Thank you very much.”

From Robert of Raunekkem WV:

“The IRS had claimed that I owed over $58,000. Luckily Roni Deutch and her team saved me from definite financial ruin. I would love to be featured in a commercial to explain that if it were not for Roni Deutch, my assets including my weekly paycheck would have gone to unsubstantiated claims brought on by the IRS. I am a hard-working truck driver who worked for dishonest companies claiming I made more than I did to lessen their tax liability. I had nowhere to turn, and then I saw Roni’s commercials.

Roni Deutch’s Law Firm Negotiated IRS Payment Plans for Taxpayers Owing Over $3.9 Million in November, 2009

Posted 12/30/2009 9:45:42 AM

By negotiating Installment Agreements (IA) for their clients, Roni Deutch and her tax resolution law firm provided tax relief to a group of clients collectively owing the IRS over $3.9 million in the month of November 2009. An IA with the IRS allows a taxpayer to repay all, or part, of their delinquent tax liability through manageable monthly payments.

Of the clients, half were able to qualify for traditional Installment Agreements, while the other half were placed on Streamlined Installment Agreements (SIA). SIAs can be entered without disclosing any financial information to the IRS provided that a taxpayer’s tax debt is less than $25,000, all tax returns have been filed, and the monthly payment will pay off the tax debt in five years or less. The average tax liability for the clients placed on an SIA was just over $16,000, and the average payment was around $260 per month. On the other hand, the average liability of the clients placed on traditional IAs was around $35,000 with a payment of under $425 per month.

Tax Law Firm Ends IRS Collections Against Taxpayers Owing $6.7 Million in Unpaid Taxes

10 Secrets the IRS Does Not Want You to Know

Posted 12/30/2009 9:43:10 AM

Unfortunately, when it comes to tax debt collection, there are dozens of secrets that the IRS does not want taxpayers to know about. As a government agency, they want to collect as much money as they can. However, after working with the IRS for nearly two decades, our attorneys already know many of these IRS secrets and tactics.

1. Automatic Extensions
Although we all rush to get our tax returns filed before the April 15th filing deadline ever year, the IRS actually provides you with an easy way to get an extra six months to file your return. By requesting an automatic extension using IRS Form 4868, you can get a few extra months to file your return. In many cases, it is often better to request an extension then to file a flawed return that will result in an audit or back tax liability.

In addition, filing for an extension alone carries no penalty with it. Rather, it is the failure to pay on time that will result in interest and penalties. An automatic extension does not extend the deadline to pay taxes to the IRS. Therefore, if you anticipate having an outstanding tax liability, you will still need to pay the IRS by April 15th to avoid penalties and interest. On the other hand, if you are expecting a refund, then you need not worry about being penalized for requesting an extension.

2. The IRS Wants To Settle Quickly
It may not seem like it when you are dealing with them, but the IRS actually wants to settle your delinquent account as quickly as possible because pursuing collections against you can be expensive. In some cases, the IRS can even be convinced to settle your account for less than what you owe. However, you will need to convince the IRS that because of your financial circumstances it is better for them to accept your offer to pay a reduced amount.

3. The IRS Does Not Want to Seize Your Assets
One common misconception is that the IRS prefers to seize your personal property and liquidate it to satisfy your tax debt. However, the process of identifying, locating, seizing, and selling your assets is a very difficult and labor-intensive process for the IRS. As such, the IRS would much rather settle with you then go down this path. Additionally, issuing a wage garnishment or bank levy is much easier and cheaper for the IRS to obtain. If you ignore your tax debts, then the IRS will likely try to use a wage garnishment or bank levy to try to collect from you as opposed to seizing your assets.

4. The Fear Tactic
One of the IRS’s most common tactics to collect from you is the use of fear. The IRS will often remind you of their power to garnish your wages, issue liens, seize assets, etc. And they will leave it up to you to find out about your rights and options. This is enough to leave most people feeling a little fearful such that you will divulge harmful information about your tax situation or will agree to enter into a less than beneficial resolution for your particular financial circumstances.

5. The Streamlined Installment Agreement
One of the IRS’ biggest secrets is the Streamlined Installment Agreement (SIA). Unlike the traditional Installment Agreement, you can get an SIA accepted by the IRS without providing a full financial disclosure so long as your tax debt is less than $25,000 and you agree to repay your entire tax debt in five years or less.

6. The IRS Can Waive Your Application Fees
When you submit an Offer in Compromise (OIC) or another tax debt resolution application, the IRS will require you to pay a small fee as well as some type of deposit. With an OIC, the IRS requires that you pay a $150 fee and a 20% deposit on your tax debt before the IRS will review your application. However, if you meet certain income restrictions, the IRS will waive both the fee and deposit.

7. The TAS Is Part Of The IRS
The Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) promotes helping taxpayers with their IRS problems, but they are actually part of the IRS. Although the TAS is supposed to be an independent organization within the IRS, who would you rather have fighting the IRS on your behalf – an experienced tax attorney or another IRS employee? Keep this in mind when you are thinking of requesting help from the TAS.

8. Statute Of Limitations On Tax Debts
If your tax debt stems from a tax return that was filed over a decade ago, then the IRS might not be able to collect on your account because there is a 10-year statute of limitations on tax debts. There are several instances where the IRS can extend this deadline. One way is to get you to unwittingly and “voluntarily” agree to extend the limitations period. Don’t be fooled. The IRS cannot force you to extend the limitations period, so avoid agreeing to an extension as part of any agreement you enter into with them.

9. You Can Appeal Collection Activities
After the IRS notifies you that they intend to begin collection activities, usually through an intent to levy letter, you will have 30 days to file an appeal. Through the Collection Due Process hearing, you can have a senior technical advisor for the IRS review your case and issue a decision. Alternatively, if you believe the IRS erroneously rejected your request for an IRS tax debt resolution (e.g. Installment Agreement, Currently Not Collectible status, or an Offer in Compromise), you can appeal that rejection. However, be diligent since you only have a limited amount of time to do so.

10. You Are Not Required To Meet With The IRS
Oftentimes, the IRS will call or send letters requesting that you meet with them to discuss your tax return or unpaid balance due. So many of our clients contact our law firm scared by these requests and feel like they will are required to attend. The truth is, very rarely will you be required to meet with the IRS. You are only required to meet with the IRS upon being served with Summons or if you are being audited. In both instances, you still have the right to be represented, and can also request for the meeting to be rescheduled to a more convenient date, time, or location.

Innocent Spouse Relief

Posted 12/10/2009 1:31:50 PM

When you are married, you can either file a joint tax return with your spouse, or you can file separate returns. If you and your spouse file a return together, then you are both equally liable for all taxes during the years you are married, as well as any penalties or interest. However, realizing that there are instances when it would be unfair to hold both spouses equally responsible, the IRS created the Innocent Spouse Relief Program.

What is Innocent Spouse Relief?

In order to help protect a taxpayer from being forced to pay for incorrect information reported by the taxpayer’s spouse on their return, the IRS set up the Innocent Spouse Relief Program. If a taxpayer can prove that he or she is legitimately not responsible for owed tax debts stemming from the years the taxpayer was married, then the IRS may decide to collect from only the spouse or ex-spouse. There are three different forms of spouse relief, which are all described in more detail below. If a taxpayer does not qualify for one type, then it is possible that he or she may qualify for another.

Classic Innocent Spouse Relief

The original form of spouse relief will fully relieve a taxpayer of their spouse’s tax liability. According to the IRS, the following conditions must be met before innocent spouse relief will be granted:

• A taxpayer filed a joint return, which had incorrect information relating to the taxpayer’s spouse.
• The taxpayer proves that, at the time he or she signed the joint return, the taxpayer did not know, and had no reason to know, that there was incorrect information reported by the taxpayer’s spouse on the return.
• Given all of the facts, the IRS determines that it would be unfair to hold the innocent taxpayer responsible for the incorrect information reported by the taxpayer’s spouse on the return.
• The innocent taxpayer applies for relief within two years of the IRS’s first attempt to collect the amount owed.

Relief by Separation of Liability

Under this form of innocent spouse relief, the IRS can allocate different amounts of the original tax liability to each spouse instead of holding them equally liable for the entire amount. To qualify for this form of relief, the tax debt needs to have stemmed from an error such as under reporting of income, or incorrectly calculating your tax liability. You and your spouse must also be in compliance with the following conditions:

• You and your spouse did not fraudulently transfer assets to each other as part of a scheme to defraud any third party, including the IRS, creditors, business partners, etc.
• You had no knowledge of erroneous items on your tax return at the time it was filed.

Equitable Relief

Taxpayers who do not qualify for Classic Innocent Spouse Relief or Relief by Separation of Liability may qualify for the Equitable Relief program. This form of innocent spouse relief is the only one that will allow you to request relief from an underpayment of tax where the tax liability was listed correctly on a taxpayers return, but was not paid. According to the IRS, you must meet the following conditions to qualify for equitable relief.

• You do not qualify for Classic Innocent Spouse Relief or Relief by Separation of Liability.
• The IRS deems it unfair to hold you liable for the underpayment of taxes taking into account all of the facts and circumstances of your case.
• You and your spouse did not transfer assets as part of a fraudulent scheme.
• Your spouse did not transfer property to you for the main purpose of avoiding taxes.
• You did not file your return with the intent to commit fraud.
• You did not pay the tax.

Our Law Firm Turns An IRS Tax Levy Into A Positive Experience

Taxpayer From St. Louis Gets Tax Relief In Under Three Months

Posted 11/30/2009 10:56:20 AM

Earlier this year, Barbara of St. Louis, Missouri called our law firm for help with her tax problems. At the time, Barbara was confused about her financial situation and did not know where to turn for help. Fortunately, our law firm was able to get her set-up on a monthly payment plan in less than three months to repay her tax debt to the IRS.

“Negotiating the Installment Agreement for Barbara was actually pretty simple,” explains John Wetenkamp, the attorney who negotiated with the IRS on Barbara’s behalf. “She provided us with all of the documentation we needed within 30 days of our request to her. She also called us immediately when she received an IRS notice so that we could explain to her what it meant, and so that we could provide a response. I was glad to see that she kept us informed regarding the notices she received because the IRS does not always send copies to us, even through we have advised them of our representation. As a result, we were able to get Barbara set-up on a $200 per month Installment Agreement, and the entire process took less than three months from start to finish.”

“Luckily Barbara was fully compliant when she hired us,” continues Wetenkamp, “meaning she did not have any missing tax returns. She was also very accurate as far as the estimate that she provided to the Intake Department of what she owed. These factors all contributed to the success of this case.”

“I was scared and confused about my debt to the IRS,” recalls Barbara. “Roni Deutch and her team made me feel taken care of right away and everything they promised was realized. They acted thoroughly, professionally, and efficiently on my behalf in a time of desperate measures.”

Single Mother Of Two Seeks Help With IRS Wage Garnishment

Posted 11/30/2009 10:54:49 AM

Maralyn of Mount Clemens, Michigan retained our law firm when she encountered serious problems with the IRS. She had a huge back tax liability and the IRS had already begun taking collection actions. Maralyn had her wages garnished, which made it difficult for her to pay for basic living expenses.

“Maralyn’s case was difficult because of her high tax liability,” recalls Jin Kim, the attorney who handled Ms. McNally’s case.” The balance exceeded $100,000 and the IRS Large Dollar Unit was assigned to collect the debt. The client, needless to say, had severe financial hardship when the IRS started garnishing her wages. She is a single mother with two daughters, and the garnishment pushed her financial situation over the edge. I greatly appreciated the client’s willingness to participate in her case and I think her diligence contributed to the successful resolution of her case.”

“I am relieved to have my garnishment released and an installment agreement with the IRS,” explains Maralyn. “Your staff was the kindest, most genuine group of people I have ever spoken with. They always gave me the truth but also the hope that my situation could be resolved.”

“My case was a tough one,” continues Maralyn, “and your attorneys did a great job. My faith in your law firm did not waiver and the release of the garnishment saved my life! Thank you.”

Dishonest Accountant Results In A Tax Liability For A Couple From Massachusetts

Posted 11/8/2009 3:08:59 PM

From Mrs. Quitadamo of Worcester, MA:

“My husband and I received notice from the IRS this past year that we owed over $7,000. I had changed jobs and cashed in my retirement because it would not roll over to my new job. Our accountant advised me to make this decision, and promised he would take care of it on our tax returns. However, even though I provided him with the necessary paperwork to report the additional income, he never did. His reason? He told my husband and I that he did not want us to have to pay extra taxes.”

“We have been going through some hard times lately and could not afford to pay the tax bill. I have seen Roni Deutch’s advertisement on television a few times and promptly called. The advisor I talked to was wonderful. He did not know given the small amount we owed if we would qualify but took my name and number and promised to look into every option. He called me back within 20 minutes and told us that we might qualify for one type of IRS settlement program. We sent in all the proper paperwork, and every time we sent a fax someone from the law firm would call to confirm they received it. The lawyers handling our case were wonderful and the best thing is that the IRS accepted our monthly payment plan. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Roni and her law firm. They provided us help when we needed it the most.”
