Don't leave your IRS trouble to anyone other than the BEST - Chad Silver, ESQ

I was so worried about the IRS notices I was receiving and thought that my bank account was going to be levied - UNTIL I talked to Chad. What a relief he provided and I no longer have to talk or deal with the IRS as Chad does all the talking me. He reduced my debt, penalties and interest - thank you ...Chad and 1-800-LAW-FIRM. I would recommend you to anyone dealing with these issues.

Criminal Investigator Came to my Door!

An IRS Criminal Investigator came snooping around my house and began asking me a lot of alarming questions. The investigator had a badge and a gun! Basically he was not welcomed into my house. The Tax Attorneys at 1-800-LAW-FIRM calmed me down. The tax attorneys told me that an IRS criminal inves...tigator investigates tax crimes and helps prosecute tax crimes. I was very disturbed by the IRS coming to my house. I thought I might be able to talk myself out of the problem but the tax attorneys told me this was a bad idea. The Attorneys talked to the Investigator and after some negotiation the problem went away. That’s all I can really say about this but the Attorneys did a good job and I did not go to jail.

10 Years of Unfiled Tax Returns Owed $220,000 –Reduced to $18,000

I just never filed tax returns for years. That was the last thing on my mind but I knew something was wrong when my employer got a wage garnishment and it said I owed over $220,000. Thought I was having a heart attack from that one. The payroll people told me to find a tax attorney like asap. Fou...nd Attorney Chad Silver at 1-800-LAW-FIRM. The team had a phone consultation with me and told me exactly what they would do to help. They worked fast and it was an emergency situation for sure. They completed the tax returns and good thing because I threw away all my records. They were able to get the tax debt reduced by more than I could have hoped for. Also, in some years I was to get a refund that was to go against how much I owed. Wow what I mess. So it all got fixed and the IRS did not touch my wages. Worth every penny for the help!

Won Identity Theft Case

IRS sent me letters saying I had to pay them back for a big tax refund I got. I was shocked because I did not get any type of refund. I could not figure out what was going on and I was scared. So I started calling some people to figure out what to do. My CPA referred me to Federal Tax Defense at 1...-800-LAW-FIRM – I had about a 20 minute conversation with one of the Tax guru’s over there who totally knew what I was going thru. I completed the paperwork and they called the IRS for me and explained what was going on. It seemed fairly easy to them but very complicated to me. The Tax Defense team got the IRS to begin an investigation on my case and all the crazy letters stopped. Now I am able to move forward because the identity theft defense was granted by the IRS – my Lawyers won. I’m glad I retained a Tax Defense team who knew what they were doing. I made a good decision and their customer service was very good. Thank you.

Won IRS Audit

The IRS audited me for 2010, 2011, and 2012. The IRS sent me a bill for like $36,000. I took my case to 1-800-LAW-FIRM and Tax Attorney Chad Silver and his team reviewed the case and told me the IRS was totally wrong about how much I owed. I just was not organized and the Tax defense team got me o...rganized and told me what to say and not say when talking to the IRS. I had no idea what my rights were. They looked at all my paperwork and negotiated on my behalf. I wish I hired this team earlier but I did not know where to look.
