Do I Need a Gilbert AZ IRS Tax Attorney For Trust Fund Recovery Penalties?
Trust Fund and Gilbert AZ IRS Tax Attorney
The IRS is very aggressive in trying to collect on Trust Funds associated with payroll taxes withheld from employee’s paychecks. However, this is not a legal matter and is not considered a criminal act and does not require the services of an Gilbert AZ IRS Tax Attorney. Most employers that do not pay in their payroll tax withholdings are struggling with their business and try to keep the business afloat by “borrowing” these funds with the intent to pay them back at a later date when business improves.
Unfortunately most businesses do not improve enough to pay the taxes with the penalties added. When the business closes, these taxes are eventually reassigned over to the individual(s) responsible for paying the taxes. This will include the owners and anyone associated with payment of taxes.
There are two areas of IRS representation work that may be needed with regard to Trust Fund Recovery Penalties. If you feel that the IRS is unjustified in targeting you for payment of the taxes and penalties, we are able to evaluate your responsibility or lack thereof. This is usually a black and white matter, but the IRS takes a “shot gun” approach and tries to include as many people without really knowing who is truly responsible.
The second area is making a settlement with the IRS if you are in fact responsible for the payment of the tax and penalties. There are several options available to settle with the IRS for less than the amount owed, depending on your financial ability to pay.
