Most trusted tax attorney in Arizona

After years of living with the world's weight on our shoulders about our enormous tax debt, the day finally came when the IRS garnished all money owed to me from my company. Yes, they can do this, and they will. In a panic, we contacted one of the "advertised" companies, which wasted our time and mon...ey as we were just a number in a system. We have a family of 5 who desperately needed this fixed immediately. After reading fantastic reviews about Nathan Carr, who specializes in tax law, we made our appointment. We had so much fear and felt awful about our situation. Nathan assured us we were not alone, showed us a clear path forward, and used the law to bring us to the finish line. Our OIC took some time, especially b/c of COVID closing things down at the IRS. We did everything Nathan and Cynthia told us to do for two years. Nathan is a genius and won our case on appeal! We are so grateful for the professionalism, dedication, and care that Carr Law Firm showed. The IRS accepted our offer in compromise, and Nathan Carr settled it for only 4.2% of the total tax liability! Nathan Carr is the best tax lawyer in Arizona. I am so grateful we put our trust in Carr Law Firm.

BEST LAWYER EVER

Let me begin by telling you that I am actual person. My actual situation may be just like the one that you may be going through as well. But when I got a letter from the IRS warning me of a levy, I thought my life was over. Besides that I needed to file for bankruptcy as I was in debt like you wouldn...'t imagine. Let alone I owed the IRS more than $40,000 and I had no money or idea of how to manage this with the IRS. I callled many attorneys and all of them wanted me to pay for a consultation fee, which, to me made no sense, because I shouldn't haven't to pay an attorney if I don't want to hire them after speaking to them. But when I called Nathan Carr, he didn't charge me a penny to listen to me. He helped me file for my bankruptcy case and I successfully accomplished my discharge and Nathan also helped me with my IRS problems. Nathan is a very compassionate person who truly cares about his clients. He and his staff are very supporting and very experienced when it comes to Bankruptcy and IRS issues. Bottom line I was able to enter into a compromise and settlement with the IRS for $400 dollars and I got a new start in life. Now I am working diligently on improving my credit and no more sleepless nights for me! I want to personally recommend Nathan Car Law Office as your number one choice of attorneys.

Taxes: present and late.

After trusting my (NOW) ex-husband to do the taxes and finding out he did not for about 6 years, the IRS was wanting more money than I would make in 2-3 years. Nathan was able to negotiate for me and I was able to settle this debt. He was very understanding and professional but still maintained a f...riendly atmosphere at the office. Law offices and lawyers are scary enough. I was glad I could relax and not feel "scared to death" whenever I had to do business at the office. I would recommend Nathan for any tax law problems or just filing your yearly taxes.

Excellent Service and Dedicated

Nathan Carr is an amazing Tax attorney and helped my husband I with our IRS problems and back Taxes. He saved us a great deal and worked so hard in our case and provided us the service and honesty. Mr. Carr had our Tax Penalties and Tax lien removed, he offered great resources and experience. He a...lso helped us with our BK case and put as at ease and gave us a peace of mind. This attorney helped us through when we were so down financially and gave us an excellent payment plan, we had bad experiences with attorneys in the past that was charging us excessively and did not provide us a the service and honesty. so working with Mr. Carr has changed my fear of attorneys, we trust his ability and appreciate his dedication.

IRS Tax Debt

In 2013, I received the dreaded letter from the IRS informing me that I owed taxes for past years ( in fairness to the IRS I was expecting this letter to come at some time). Like a lot of people I searched the web for help and found there are quite a few services out there to handle this type of situ...ation, however most are out of state and you don't necessarily get to consult with an actual attorney. Also I was hoping to find someone local so I could actually meet someone face to face. Continuing my search I came across Carr Law and the reviews that I read were positive and so I made an appointment to meet Nathan Carr and discuss my situation. I was impressed with his knowledge and retained his services on the spot. Together with the help of Mr. Carr and Cynthia they filed the necessary forms to get the process started. I would like to say this went relatively quickly, however the IRS kept delaying for almost a year and a half stating they were somewhat busy and had not assigned an agent to handle my case. This next part is why you want to have someone as knowledgeable as Mr. Carr in your corner. Twice the IRS came back and said that I wasn't compliant in each instance was I not only in compliance but the on the first occasion was after I had already filed and paid my taxes for the current year. After the second time I received a letter stating that I had not provided the documentation asked for in a timely matter and that they were closing my case and rejecting my offer. Needless to say not the news I was hoping to hear but Nate and Cynthia got on it immediately and I'm very happy to say they not only got it sorted out but the IRS is going to accept my offer which will save me approximately 90% of my tax bill (this includes attorney fees). I received this news just before Christmas and I'm just waiting for the final paperwork from the IRS to finalize this once and for all. If you get into this kind of mess you might think you can file the appropriate paperwork on your own which you could, but I can't stress this enough the importance of having a quality professional on your side in case something goes wrong (which did happen in my case) because you don't want to take on the IRS on your own as such a large bureaucracy you could easily be ruined financially before you could get it straightened out. So in closing I would highly recommend Nathan Carr at Carr Law to handle any tax troubles that you might have.
