State and Federal Tax Attorney Serving Montville, NJ
Whether you are dealing with the Internal Revenue Service, the New Jersey Department of Taxation, or both, protecting yourself requires a knowledgeable and strategic approach to the complex issues involved.
As a Montville Tax Attorney, I deal with complicated tax issues on a daily basis. I also routinely meet with business owners and other individuals who are facing a significant amount of stress as a result of being contacted by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) or the New Jersey Department of Taxation.
If you are in this situation, it is important to know two things: (i) you are not alone, and (ii) you have options available. The IRS and the New Jersey Department of Taxation routinely audit taxpayers for a variety of different reasons. While it may be the case that someone (such as an ex-spouse or ex-business partner) has reported you to the IRS or that the New Jersey Department of Taxation has questions about whether you underpaid, it could also be the case that you have been selected randomly. While you could be facing substantial tax liability, there could also be a simple solution to your tax problem.
Are you facing a potential tax issue in Montville, NJ? If so, I encourage you to give me a call. I have extensive experience representing individuals and business owners, and I can help you secure a favorable solution quickly, cost-effectively, and with minimal disruption to your business or personal life.

Answers to FAQs: Mitigating State and Federal Tax Liability
[otw_shortcode_content_toggle title=”Q: What penalties could I face if I haven’t filed my tax return or I failed to disclose foreign assets to the IRS?” opened=”closed”]
The IRS imposes substantial penalties against individuals and organizations that fail to file their tax returns or disclose foreign assets. Although not filing a return is a federal crime that carries the potential for prison time, it is highly unlikely that you will be incarcerated. Instead, you will most likely be at risk for penalties calculated as a percentage of the amount you own. Learn more:

[otw_shortcode_content_toggle title=”Q: What is an offer in compromise?” opened=”closed”]
An offer in compromise is a way to pay less than you owe to the IRS. While not everyone will qualify to submit an offer in compromise, if you qualify, submitting an offer can be the best way to resolve your dispute with the IRS. Contacting an knowledgeable Montville Tax Lawyer is your first step.

[otw_shortcode_content_toggle title=”Q: What are my options if I do not qualify to submit an offer in compromise?” opened=”closed”]
If you do not qualify for tax relief under the Internal Revenue Code provisions governing offers in compromise, you still potentially have a variety of different options for reducing your liability or structuring a payment plan that you can afford to pay over time. For example, you may be able to have your file placed in currently non-collectible status or you may be able to negotiate an installment plan with a waiver of penalties.

[otw_shortcode_content_toggle title=”Q: Can I file for bankruptcy to avoid paying back taxes?” opened=”closed”]
Maybe. While income tax debt is subject to discharge in bankruptcy after a certain period of time, there are many more considerations involved in deciding to file for bankruptcy. I can help you weigh your options. And if you choose to file, I can refer you to a local bankruptcy attorney in Montville.
