Joke
What you’ve put my husband & I through this whole time has been a joke but you got your money. Now case closed & we are still in the same boat. I will not recommend this company to anyone. The sad part is I was recommended by a church member, how sad..

SAVE YOUR TIME AND MONEY
If I could give NEGATIVE stars, I would. Here are the guarantees when hiring Travis Watkins Tax...Bad legal advice, high employee turn over, nothing getting done, never speaking to an actual attorney, everything they say won't happen, WILL happen and in the end, YOU will still be stuck dealing with ...
Sean, Thank you for reaching out. Our apologies for the misspelling of the name. A review of your case shows the original contracted services to be penalty abatement; however, the person who reviewed the case in 2021 thought they might be able to save you money by filing an offer in compromise (OIC). Our firm did put together an OIC, which you signed, and we then filed on your behalf. When it was disapproved, we then appealed in an attempt to save, tax, penalties and interest (going above and beyond the contracted services). Our representatives (attorneys, enrolled agents, and support staff) communicated with you throughout the OIC process including the appeal process. Upon learning the OIC was not successful, an installment agreement was established. We then prepared a penalty abatement request and mailed it to you for your signature. The penalty abatement form was not returned signed; therefore, we could not file it with the IRS. After waiting 30 days for the signed form we did close the case. We would be happy to file the penalty abatement form for you, but we would need the requested form signed and returned to us. If you would like for us to do so, please contact the office at 405.607.1192 and we can get this issue resolved to your satisfaction.
