I haven't opened IRS letters in months. Is it too late?
No. Most of our clients arrive with a stack of unopened mail. The IRS moves in slow, predictable steps, and nearly every stage has a remedy. Bring us the pile — opening it together is often the whole first meeting.
I'm embarrassed about how this happened.
Don't be. Divorce, illness, a business that didn't work out, a few bad years — tax debt almost always has an ordinary human story behind it. We're not here to relitigate it; we're here to resolve it.
What does it cost?
The first case review is free. If we proceed, the transcript investigation is a flat fee, and any resolution work is quoted in writing before it begins. We never charge a percentage of savings, and you'll never receive an invoice you didn't agree to in advance.
Can you really settle tax debt for less than I owe?
Sometimes — it's called an offer in compromise, and it's real, but it depends on your finances, not on negotiating bravado. If you qualify, we'll pursue it. If you don't, we'll say so and recommend what will actually work.
Will hiring you stop the IRS from contacting me?
Once you sign a power of attorney, the IRS is required to deal with us directly. The letters and calls come to our office instead of your kitchen table.
I have several years of unfiled returns.
That's one of the most common situations we see. We can pull your wage and income records directly from the IRS, reconstruct the missing years, and file them — usually a prerequisite to any settlement or payment plan.
Do I have to come to Spokane?
No. Engagements happen by phone and secure document upload — whether you're in Spokane, Boise, Portland, or Billings, you get the same service without leaving home.
