Is the IRS Newer and Nastier or Kinder and Gentler?

March 28, 2011 | From the Firm

* * MEDIA ALERT * *

DATE: March 28, 2011
RE: Is the IRS Newer and Nastier or Kinder and Gentler? Yes!

As taxpayers face another April 15, there’s a good reason to be confused. With mixed message coming from the IRS on a daily basis, many don’t know which to believe. On one hand they hear the IRS is “nicer” because it’s now allowing taxpayers with federal tax liens to get them withdrawn and offering simplified installments and compromises to those who owe outstanding taxes. But on the other hand, the IRS is “meaner”. It sends out messages about being more heavy handed on employers who fail to make payroll deposits and has become increasingly punitive regarding off-shore investors who have been hiding income.

March 8, 2011 | From the Firm

WALLINGFORD, CT, Mar. 8, 2001 – IRS Medic recently moved to larger offices due to its rapidly expanding practice. The tax resolution law firm is now located at 144 South Main Street, Wallingford in a historic building. The move doubles the size of the firm’s office space to 5500 square feet.

So You Think You’re Smarter Than the IRS? Think Again!

August 10, 2010 | From the Firm

WALLINGFORD, CT, Aug. 16, 2010 – If Nicholas Cage, Pamela Anderson and Wesley Snipes can get away without paying their income taxes, why should the IRS come after you?

“What people don’t understand is that all these celebs are far from getting away with their tax debts.

The IRS will go after anyone who owes back taxes,” says tax resolution attorney Anthony Parent. “So why would you even consider trying to bullet- proof yourself if you owe taxes? Read More…
