IRS Problem Resolution and State Tax Defense for Bronx Taxpayers

Addressing Federal and New York Tax Enforcement

When dealing with tax collection notices in the Bronx, many taxpayers feel overwhelmed by the technical language and tight deadlines the IRS imposes. The Michelson Law Offices provides representation for both federal and state tax matters, handling everything from audit defense that challenges IRS examination findings to back tax negotiations that reduce overall liability through settlement programs designed for taxpayers who cannot pay their full assessed debt.

Bronx residents facing tax problems need counsel that understands how IRS collection procedures work in practice—not just theory. Revenue officers assigned to New York cases follow specific protocols, and knowing how to navigate their requirements makes the difference between successful resolution and escalating enforcement that leads to bank levies, property seizure, or business closures.

Removing Garnishments and Clearing Tax Liens

If you need immediate relief from wage garnishment in the Bronx, legal representation focuses on negotiating release agreements that restore your full income while establishing payment arrangements the IRS will accept. Unlike general practitioners, experienced tax counsel knows which financial documentation the IRS requires, how to present hardship cases effectively, and when to pursue currently-not-collectible status for clients who genuinely cannot afford any payment.

Tax lien resolution involves different strategies depending on your specific situation and goals. Clients trying to sell property need lien subordination or discharge. Those seeking to improve credit need formal lien withdrawal after satisfying their obligations. Representation handles the paperwork, negotiations, and follow-up needed to clear these public records that damage financial standing and complicate major transactions.

Get in touch if you're dealing with IRS collection actions, unfiled returns, or state tax problems in the Bronx and need counsel that can evaluate your options and implement solutions that stop enforcement while addressing your underlying tax obligations.
