Los Angeles Attorneys - Discharging Taxes

Unfortunately, many people are behind on their taxes due to job losses and other fall-out from the current economy. Rather than living with the stress of trying to avoid the IRS and not knowing what to do, it is more beneficial to deal with the situation by seeking out the counsel of qualified debt relief attorneys who can help you resolve the matter.

At Weintraub & Selth, we routinely negotiate with the IRS to help clients discharge taxes and resolve tax issues. From our offices in Los Angeles, we help individuals and businesses with tax management and tax restructuring using all available legal methods, including helping people discharge taxes in bankruptcy. For more information about how our Los Angeles tax discharge lawyers can help you settle your tax matters, contact us today to schedule an appointment.

In many situations, the IRS only offers a very short list of options to deal with outstanding tax liabilities. We know how to maximize these opportunities, including setting up a fair installment repayment plan or negotiating an equitable offer in compromise that will allow you certain scheduled expensed deductions to take when calculating what you have to repay.

Tax Help for Individuals

For individuals who need to discharge taxes or settle an outstanding tax debt, sometimes the installment agreement that the IRS will offer will be a higher amount and due faster than if that person files for bankruptcy. We can help you determine what avenue would best meet your needs and then help you navigate the steps to accomplish this goal.

Tax Help for Businesses

We also help businesses with discharge tax debts. The IRS and other taxing agencies tend to be very inflexible when it comes to repayment options but, if you file for bankruptcy, you will automatically be allowed five years to repay your debts.

Bankruptcy and Other Tax Discharge Solutions

Additionally, bankruptcy provides the opportunity to totally discharge some types of tax debts, if the debt is over three years old at the time you file for bankruptcy. Old debts are considered seasoned and not a priority. The IRS may allow you to pay them off for pennies on the dollar.

No matter what your financial situation, we can help you work out a solution through careful planning. We can help you realize which taxes are not dischargeable and how to negotiate a repayment plan that fits your circumstances for taxes you must repay. We can also help you wipe out tax debt by negotiating for time to pay off these obligations and also help you completely discharge eligible tax bills.
