Consumers Must Be Wary of Tax Relief Pitches That Sound Too Good to Be True

Nov. 18, 2010 - PRLog -- Encino, CA -- With tax-relief firms getting sued by state authorities and making headlines for cheating distressed taxpayers out of thousands of dollars in upfront retainer fees, consumers need to be wary of tax relief pitches that sound too good to be true. Consumers with back taxes and other audit or collection-related problems should beware of unethical trade practices such as guarantees that cannot be delivered on.

According to tax relief expert Michael Rozbruch, transparency should be the key when looking to hire a tax resolution firm, and no firm should guarantee results without first reviewing a client’s situation in-depth.

“If you are dealing with a firm that is more concerned about when and how quickly you can pay them instead of how to best provide you with tax help, you need to walk away,” said Rozbruch, CEO of Tax Resolution Services (TRS), Co., an Inc. 5000 company. “At TRS, we evaluate each prospective client’s tax resolution case by conducting a rigorous pre-qualification process that has helped us successfully resolve thousands of cases since 1998.”

The experienced team of tax attorneys, Certified Tax Resolution Specialists, and EAs at TRS will first conduct an extensive client interview, reviewing any pertinent paperwork the client may have before potential clients are even able to retain their services. Then TRS presents them with a tax relief plan so they have realistic expectations of their tax debt settlement options as well as an understanding the costs associated with resolving their specific IRS problem.

“There are many unethical tax debt settlement firms out there who claim they can help clients settle their IRS debts for ‘pennies on the dollar,’ ” says Michael D. Zeff, Esq, an attorney who refers clients to TRS. “Michael and Team TRS will not permit a client to hire them if the potential clients are ineligible or do not qualify for a tax debt settlement. For this reason, TRS rejects more clients than they accept.”
