Sometimes, whether through neglect or the lack of funds available to pay a tax obligation when the return is due, the taxpayer puts off filing the return. When the next return is due, the taxpayer now has a double obligation and so does not file that return. The taxpayer may or may not be aware of penalties piling up and may get lost in the system as more filings are missed.

Faced with the prospect of a potential lien at any time, or even criminal prosecution for tax evasion, the taxpayer lives in constant stress, knowing that anything he or she accumulates can be immediately seized for back taxes. Is this you? Do you purposely look for ways to attempt to hide your ownership of property or just avoid accumulating assets because of this fear? Some such methods are illegal and are normally ineffective. Worse still, there is no way to build a dependable future while you are in this situation.

We can help you solve the problem of unfiled returns. The total taxes due may be less than you fear. In certain cases a bankruptcy filing can limit the taxes assessable or collectible and/or prevent the IRS from filing a lien or seizing bank accounts and property. We will tell you if, in our opinion, a bankruptcy filing will benefit your situation and, if so, refer you to a competent bankruptcy lawyer and coordinate our tax assistance with him or her.
