IRS Tax Problems?

At Sheppard Law Offices, we represent individual and business tax clientele throughout Ohio and across the United States who are facing IRS tax liabilities, penalties, and interest problems. We are THE “One-Stop Shop” when it comes to your tax and legal needs. We can assist you in preparing delinquent tax returns with our in-house tax preparation service. We can help you negotiate a settlement with the IRS that suits your current financial condition, and we will also argue on your behalf to reduce or eliminate your tax liability, interest and penalties.

Many of our clients face tax assessments ranging from as little as $10,000 to as great as $500,000. In some cases, we have helped clients resolve tax liabilities exceeding $1,000,000. Therefore, if you have an IRS tax bill greater than $10,000, Sheppard Law Offices is here to help.

Tax Lawyer in Ohio

If the IRS thinks that you have underpaid your taxes, they will immediately begin charging penalties and interest to your tax bill, without any investigation into the facts. Those charges can easily exceed the amount of tax they say that you owe – and these penalties and interest continue to add up daily. The penalties imposed reach incredible proportions in a very short period of time. There are many cases Tax Attorney Sheppard has handled where the penalties and interest have exceeded 50% of the overall tax bill. In some cases, we have helped our clients reduce or eliminate these charges through a process called abatement. We have also been successful in helping our clients eliminate any of these future charges by successfully negotiating Offers in Compromise.

Typical tax penalties include late filing penalties, late payment penalties, responsible person penalties, payroll tax penalties, sales tax penalties, accuracy-related penalties, civil tax fraud penalties, and substantial understatement penalties.

If these penalties and interest along with your principal tax liability are not satisfied properly, then the IRS can seek to:

  • Seize your bank account or your retirement account
  • Garnish your wages
  • Place a lien on your home or car so you can’t sell it
  • In some cases, impose criminal sanctions

Protect Your Assets from IRS Seizure

You do have legal rights, including the right to a court hearing, if the federal government is acting unfairly or unlawfully. Experienced Tax Lawyer Ken Sheppard at Sheppard Law Offices can help you resolve your IRS problems with defense in IRS audits or offers in compromise. The payments on the taxes you owe are also referred to as installment agreements, payment options or payment plans. Installment plans are tempting because they offer you a period of time to pay what you owe. While installment options can be a reasonable payment option for those who cannot resolve their tax debt immediately, an Ohio tax attorney can help you determine what the best choice is for your current circumstance. If you have failed to pay your taxes in full and on time, the IRS will apply late fees to the amount you already owe. If you have a valid, acceptable reason for falling behind in your taxes, you may request a penalty abatement. Our office can assist you in whatever tax service help you may need, from the preparation and filing of delinquent tax returns, to tax return preparation and administrative appeals and hearings in Federal Tax Court, we are with you every step of the way. Tax Attorney Sheppard has experience with handling IRS investigation services for clients, and with helping them to resolve wage garnishment and tax fraud defense cases. We can represent you in innocent spouse relief, back taxes and other problems that must be resolved quickly and effectively.

We represent clients throughout Ohio, including the areas of Columbus, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Toledo, Akron, Dayton, Parma, Canton, Youngstown, Lorain, Hamilton, Springfield, Kettering, Elyria, Lakewood, Cuyahoga Falls, Mansfield, and Newark.
