Taxpayers are at a tremendous disadvantage when it comes to disputes with the IRS and other tax officials. The IRS can bring legal action, and alleged violations of the tax code can result in the imposition of severe civil and criminal penalties. These penalties can include fines, seizure of property and assets, garnishment of wages and even prison time.
The attorneys at Gellner Law can successfully help you reduce tax liabilities. This includes helping you obtain penalty abatement and offers in compromise. We regularly represent clients before the Internal Revenue Service during all phases of a tax audit. This includes drafting protests, negotiating with the Appeals Office and providing representation in matters held before the United States Tax Court.
