Tax Problem Resolution

Two accountant review data spread out on a desk together

Your tax problems will not go away on their own. Ignoring the IRS is absolutely the worst thing that you can do. If you have tax problems you will continue to receive increasingly threatening letters from the IRS. The IRS has incredible powers to collect the taxes they say you owe them including seizing your bank account and garnishing your wages. The sooner we get involved the better. So call us today at 715-898-1118!

We'll start by thoroughly reviewing your financial situation and informing you of the various options available to you. We will then work with the IRS on your behalf and negotiate the best possible outcome for you. Some of the solutions we provide include:

Stopping Wage Garnishments
Releasing Bank Levies
Negotiating an Offer in Compromise
Setting up Installment Agreements
Non-Filed Tax Returns

You might be wondering "Why should I hire Baer Accounting & Tax to help me with my tax problem?" You've probably seen the commercials on tv and heard the radio ads or received countless flyers in the mail from the national tax settlement firms. They claim to have an army of tax experts on staff. In reality, this may be a huge misrepresentation. Although I'm sure there may be a few CPAs or enrolled agents in the company, the majority of the employees probably aren't. In fact, most of the employees are just sales people with little to no tax knowledge.

At Baer Accounting & Tax I will work with you personally throughout the whole process while we resolve your tax problem. I am a CPA licensed in the state of Wisconsin and an Enrolled Agent. Enrolled agents are federally licensed tax practitioners who have unlimited rights to represent taxpayers from all 50 states before the IRS. So whether you reside in my home state of Wisconsin or any other state I can help you resolve your tax problems.

The national firms claim that they can settle your tax debt for "pennies on the dollar" using a program called "Offer In Compromise". While the offer in compromise is a legitimate program offered by the IRS, many national firms make exaggerated claims to lure in unsuspecting victims. The Federal Trade Commission and several state attorney generals have filed lawsuits against many of these national firms already. Don't be their next victim. Contact your local Wisconsin based CPA firm Baer Accounting & Tax today at 715-898-1118.

Is using your neighborhood tax preparer to negotiate a settlement with the IRS a good idea? Only attorneys, CPAs and enrolled agents can represent taxpayers before the IRS. So if your tax preparer isn't an attorney, CPA or enrolled agent they won't be able to represent you. However, even if they are they may not offer tax representation services. Some accounting firms do offer some types of tax representation services, but only as a small side business. They don't perform this type of work on a regular basis or have any formal specialized training in this area of taxation.

At Baer Accounting & Tax, tax problem resolution is one of our main areas of focus. Beyond obtaining both a bachelors and masters degree in accounting, beyond becoming both a CPA and an enrolled agent, the practice of tax problem resolution requires specialized training. That's why I have completed the CCH IRS Representation Certificate Program as well as numerous courses offered by the American Society of Tax Problem Solvers as well as the National Association of Enrolled Agents National Tax Practice Institute Program.
