Travis Wesley Watkins

I signed an agreement and paid the fee in April 2021. Information requested was sent in May of 21, called to check on status of my case in August of 22 nothing had been filed. Recieved an email requesting the same information again and I called their office to get clarification then emailed the finan...cial analyst to call me for clarification. The next week recieved an email that until information was sent in they suspending work on my tax case. I was confused because they had not done any work to begin with other than getting my information, power of attorney then sitting on it. So looks like I wasted 18 months and $4000 dollars and did not even get any paper work filled with the IRS.

we hired TW in may 2020 for back tax resolution for 10k that we didnt owe but have no proof ... the IRS didnt contact us for 5 yrs and then sent us a bill in 2020 for back taxes....? TW took our money and our info and ....didnt speak to us for 3 months ....we had to sign new POA's and basically s...tart over ---fast forward a yr later-- multiple emails, texts and phone calls to gloria ,mackenzie and maverick, ---NOTHING has been done!! had to sign 2 more rounds of POA's -- emailed gloria 05/06/21 ask her if wed been forgotten --she replied on 05/28/21 with the balance and we can get a payment plan started .....WE could have set up a payment plan with the IRS ourselves and saved thousands of dollars -Now we STILL owe the IRS 10K and we're OUT 1000k hiring them for WHAT? Something i could have done myself ---- oh but theyve continually emailed me monthy wanting to know if id like to pay fir my 2020 taxes to be done so i can avoid any issues with the IRS......REALLY.....DONT USE THESE PEOPLE!!!!!!! !!

Travis Watkins will gladly take your money then not do anything to earn it. By far the worst Professionals I’ve ever dealt with. They especially like to charge an outrageous sum to do your taxes in addition to the so called resolution that will never happen. Had we worked with the IRS directly we wou...ld be paid off instead we wasted a lot of money for these clowns to rip us off.

My Husband and I have been Clients of Travis Watkins for almost 2 Years and I always love their on hold message that says you will get “A Good Nights Sleep once you hire them for your Tax Law Resolution Case”. We have always for some reason owed taxes for the past several years, so we have worked ...with the IRS without the help of any outside counsel, but this time we were being “AUDITED” and felt we needed Representation, however, they didn’t even Represent us during the Audit..they said they don’t do that, so they sent myself and husband to face the IRS alone, which I thought that was what we hired them for was to REPRESENT us in front of the IRS. Well we hired Travis Watkins and the Nightmare is still not over! We were told as long as nothing has changed in our Financial Status that there is a “Non Collectible Status” where the IRS would not take any actions during that status, but we found out what was told to us by Travis Watkins Firm Was again NOT TRUE!!!!!! Our 1st letter from IRS came stating the exact things that I was ASSURED would not happen, so I called TRAVIS WATKINS OFFICE again, and was “ASSURED” there would be NO collections at all and I asked but I was continually told “No Actions would be Taken” from the IRS, well again, that is truly NOT the case. Friday we received the infamous letters from the IRS indicating that our house now has a Lien on it and so Saturday we called Travis Watkins office and spoke with Angela who says she will get a message to Shelby for first thing Monday morning, but no call or email at all. So, I called Tuesday to see why she did not reach out to us and, then I was told the best they could do is a Phone Appointment for Wednesday at 5pm which would be her earliest appointment. That did not happen. So, I emailed Shelby this Thursday morning and I received a call from her on a VERY Bad Connection just to tell me that she has nothing to talk with us about and that our case is closed. I again informed her of what I had received (2nd Letter)that it shows that a Lien HAS been placed on my property which is unacceptable. During the conversation, I thought our call just dropped, so, I called her back when she never called me and I was directed to not call back and that our case was closed and there is nothing else they can help us with. After several attempts (THEY ANSWERED AND HUNG UP ON ME 5 Times) I finally got a person in the over-flow that didn’t hang up on me and her name was Angela (Whom we talked to Saturday), so she took all the hard blows AGAIN that would have gone to the actual Attorneys Daron Sutherland or Shelby Clark as of late or even Travis Watkins himself, but no one was available to speak with us anymore. We were told there are notes saying that “we are just mad the resolution didn’t come out in our favor, and that is why we are now calling adding all of the additional information now, which is not true. I have complained throughout the almost 2 Years about the lack of help we have received. We are for sure dissatisfied with the outcome of our Tax Resolution that we paid $4000.00 for to get our tax liability of about $56,000.00 lowered. Well, They didn’t. They couldn’t even negotiate the removal of all, any or some of the fees or penalties waived. We are a Middle Class family that needed Legal Help and now instead, we are seeking help for the help we did not get. We were told LEINS/LEVIES/GARNISHMENTS ETC. was not to be worried about per Shelby, but I have always been Leary of anything they tell me and this is why. We understand that sometimes it is hard to deal with the IRS, but we have always had a payment plan and never missed a payment, but to say they went back and forth negotiating with the IRS and they would not even take the Fees or Charges off? WOW! Not even $1.00 off of the total amount due ... NOTHING?? FOR NEW OR POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH!!

We went to this lawyer to help get money owed to us from the IRS. The IRS has given my returns to my x wife, even though I was raising my children and have court order that I am to file taxes for my children. Roughly $20,000.00 has been given away. So after many attempts to resolve it we Hired tr...avis Watkins law firm. $1,500 to refile what I already have done. A little over 2 years ago. I have to call to check on my case every couple months because we never get up dates. Once I finally get to talk to someone it's a repeat of the same BS. Government shut down, there waiting on a call from the IRS. So today's call went like this no news waiting on irs, I need appt. Why he's going tell you the same no news. June 24, 1030am. To hear no news. After paying in full there cost. More than 2 years ago. Rude, unprofessional , from Darren our personnel attorney to the rudest receptionist ever.
