If your total tax, penalties, and interest are under $25,000, we use the streamlined Small Case Request process to quickly dispute the issue.

Collection Due Process (CDP) Hearings

When the IRS issues a lien or levy, we file a CDP request (Form 12153) to pause enforcement and make your case before an independent appeals officer.

Penalty Abatement & Audit Reconsideration

We fight excessive IRS penalties with reasonable cause arguments and seek audit reconsideration when IRS assessments are based on errors or incomplete information.
