Seeking tax attorney in CA to help resolve IRS tax delinquencies, are they negotiable and can I arrange payment plan

Some IRS delinquencies are negotiable, and it's possible you can arrange a payment plan for these taxes, but if not, the IRS can place tax liens on your property.

This answer does not create an attorney-client relationship.

The IRS will abate penalties for reasonable cause. It does not sound to me like you have a situation that will meet the criteria. The next step is to look at payment of the tax. You may qualify for a payment plan, or depending on the amount, an Offer in Compromise. If this is not a significant sum, I recommend you just pay it in full and move on.
