Experienced Dallas Tax Lawyer
If you have received notice of an IRS audit or are worried about paying a substantial tax liability, or have not filed tax returns it may help to know that you have a number of options for dealing with your tax debt.
The Law Office of William F. Kunofsky helps clients deal with their tax problems. All tax problems are different, but each one has one thing in common: Worrying won't help. Obtaining experienced, aggressive representation from a knowledgeable tax attorney and certified public accountant can help you find a real solution.
Times are tough and the IRS is no longer friendly. They are aggressive and under pressure to collect as much as possible as soon as possible. Your attorney needs all of the resources available to help you.
Taxpayers have several options in dealing with a tax debt including:
- Installment plan to pay taxes over a period of time
- Offer in Compromise, to pay less than the amount you owe
- Filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy to eliminate old tax debt that has reached the IRS criteria for maturity
- Filing for Chapter 11 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy to restructure your tax debt into a supervised repayment plan.
Choosing the Right Attorney is Vitally Important
If you are considering ways to handle your tax problem, it is critical to consider the qualifications of your attorney. Installment agreements and Offers in Compromise aren't always immediately accepted by the IRS. In fact, despite what tax relief companies promise in their advertisements on television or the Internet, many proposals for installment plans and Offers of Compromise are rejected outright by the IRS. Often, other choices are better. An attorney with the right experience will look at your total financial picture and put forward a plan that is more likely to be accepted.
Bankruptcy and Tax Debt
You may not have thought about bankruptcy as a tax option, seeking the guidance of a licensed bankruptcy attorney with serious tax experience is an appropriate course of action. Certified public accountants and enrolled agents are restricted in what they can do for you. As an experienced CPA and attorney, I will work with you to evaluate your financial situation and offer you honest advice as to whether bankruptcy is the right option in your particular situation.
