Tax relief services for individuals and businesses

IRS representation, problem resolution & tax relief

When the IRS is collecting, examining, or sending notices, you need someone who can speak for you and put the file in order. As an Enrolled Agent, Matthew Wright can represent you before the IRS on collections, examinations, and related tax problem resolution.

Tax relief is the practical work of stopping unnecessary damage and pursuing a resolution the IRS can actually accept. That starts with current filings, a complete picture of income and assets, and an honest read of which option is realistic.

• Offer in compromise A request to settle tax debt for less than the full amount owed when full collection is unlikely. These cases are document-heavy and should be prepared carefully.
• Installment agreements Monthly payment plans that can halt more aggressive collection while the balance is paid over time.
• Penalty abatement Requests to reduce or remove penalties where reasonable cause, first-time abatement, or other IRS standards apply.
• Currently not collectible status A temporary pause in IRS collection when paying would create significant financial hardship.
• Levies, liens, and wage garnishments Help responding to bank levies, wage garnishments, and federal tax liens, including release or withdrawal requests where the facts support them.

Tax preparation

Clean, supportable returns are the foundation of everything else. That is true for a routine filing season, and it is especially true when tax relief is on the table. The IRS will not seriously consider most collection alternatives while required returns remain unfiled.

Preparation services include:

• Individual federal and state income tax returns
• Business returns, including common entity types
• Prior-year and currently unfiled returns
• Coordination with tax relief or IRS representation when both are needed

The aim is accuracy and clarity—returns you can stand behind, with a practitioner who can explain the positions taken if questions come later.

Tax planning & strategy

Tax planning is how you reduce the chance of repeating last year’s problem. For some clients that means estimated taxes and withholding. For others it means entity choice, timing of income, or a more disciplined bookkeeping rhythm before the next filing deadline.

Planning conversations stay practical. You will hear the likely tax effect, the compliance cost, and whether a strategy is worth the complexity—not a list of ideas disconnected from your actual return.

This work is available on its own or as a follow-through after tax debt relief, so the resolution you just finished is more likely to last.
