How a Tax Attorney can Help You

Given our knowledge and experience in federal and state tax laws, there is no limit to what we can do to help you with tax management. Our South Carolina tax attorney can answer all your queries and represent you in all meetings with the tax authorities.

Some areas of concern that we can address for you are the following:

Prepare for and Contest Tax Audits

Though you may not have anything to worry about since you didn’t intentionally cheat the system, preparing for an IRS audit can save you from substantial penalties incurred from an erroneous tax return.

With Defense Tax Partners, you can better organize your financial records to support all the data you entered on your return—clearing any discrepancy that triggered the IRS tax audit.

Here are some of the triggers that we can defend you from:
1. Clerical errors (i.e., data entry errors)
2. Unreported income
3. Disproportionate or unusually high deductions (e.g., charitable donations, business expenses, home office deductions)
4. Non-existent dependants
5. Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)
6. Self-employment with excessive reported losses

If the audit result turned out to be unfair, we could also help you file an appeal to contest it. More importantly, we can give you some guidelines so you can avoid the hassle of any tax audit in the future.

Civil Penalty Relief

Civil penalties are imposed for several tax violations, including the failure to file your tax return, failure to pay your tax bill on time, and failure to deposit certain taxes. And, unfortunately, paying for these penalties can be more than what you can afford or are willing to pay for—especially if the violation occurred due to circumstances out of your control.

Fortunately, there are three types of penalty relief that the IRS offers: (1) Reasonable Cause, (2) Administrative Waiver and First Time Penalty Abatement, and (3) Statutory Exception.

If you apply for the first, our lawyer will help prove that you didn’t intentionally evade your tax obligations. We can help gather documents that will support this claim, such as the hospital records, court records, letters from your physician, documentation of a natural disaster, etc.

Settlement of Federal & State Tax Disputes

Defense Tax Partners knows how the IRS and the DOR works. We know how their tax regulations differ as well as their specific requirements and approval procedures for their tax relief programs. Depending on the issue you have with either the federal or state tax authority, our legal service will be tailored to meet your needs in the way that best protects your finances and rights as a taxpayer.

Regardless of how complicated you think your situation is, don’t hesitate to call Defense Tax Partners. Our lawyers will gladly be of your assistance from start to finish!

Negotiations on Non-Filing of Taxes Violation

Failure to file your return has a standard penalty of 5-25% of your tax liability each month. However, if your non-filing was an act of fraud against the IRS or if you deliberately filed an erroneous return, your penalty will be 15-75% each month with possible incarceration.

Our lawyers can negotiate the minimum penalty, apply for penalty relief, or dispute your penalty amount. However, the best way to avoid severe penalties are still filing returns and paying tax bills accurately and on time.

If that’s not possible, we can help you apply for a time extension for filing or enroll in a payment plan for your accumulated tax debts and penalties.
