What clients say

Real results. Real stories.

When I first contacted Mike about my situation with the IRS he came to my house to discuss any options that may be available. I found him to be friendly, honest and well educated with tax laws and penalties. Mike represented me in obtaining a manageable monthly payment with the IRS and put a hold on late fees they were going to put in place.

M. Whitaker

Individual Client

Due to your professional insight and prior years as Special Agent for the IRS, you were able to eliminate $30,000 worth of debt in a matter of minutes. I am still amazed. None of the former companies I had called prior to you gave me any hope at all. I highly recommend your service – you should be the first and only call anyone needs to make concerning a tax problem.

Dr. T.G. Holohan

Physician

Your persistence and diligence in reviewing my corporate tax liability resulted in my company saving over $250,000 in tax obligations. Your 22 years of criminal investigation experience helped uncover some irregularities processed by my former CFO, which allowed me to appeal my case and refile my corporate tax returns. Thanks to you I am now able to sleep at night.

Common Questions

What you might be wondering.

Every case is different, so fees are quoted after the free 30-minute consultation – once Mike understands the scope. We use flat-fee engagements wherever possible so you know the cost up front, not an hourly meter that runs while you wait.

For most resolution cases, the savings on penalties, interest, and settled liability dwarf the fee many times over.

Simple cases – a single year of back taxes or a straightforward installment agreement – can resolve in 30 to 60 days. Levy and garnishment releases often happen within days.

Larger Offer in Compromise cases generally take 6 to 9 months because the IRS itself sets that pace. Mike will give you a realistic timeline at the consultation.

No. Mike represents clients across the country. Everything is handled by phone, video call, and a secure document portal. As a federally licensed Enrolled Agent, he can represent you before the IRS in any state.

Complex is the work Mike spent 22 years doing. Multi-year non-filing, payroll tax trust fund cases, criminal exposure, business and personal returns intertwined – these aren’t edge cases for him, they’re the file he’s been reading his whole career.

If your case truly needs additional specialists, Mike has a small network of attorneys and CPAs he trusts and brings in directly.

Book a 30-minute call. Mike asks you about your situation, the IRS notices you’ve received, and what’s been keeping you up at night. He’ll tell you – plainly – what you’re facing and what realistic options exist.

No sales pitch, no obligation. If we’re not the right fit, he’ll tell you that too.
