Need professional IRS audit representation? We can help.

IRS audits create stress, uncertainty, and significant risk of additional tax assessments, penalties, and unwanted attention to other tax years if not handled properly. At Resolve Federal Tax Group, our experienced audit representatives specialize in protecting your rights, minimizing audit adjustments, and achieving the best possible outcomes when the IRS examines your tax returns. Audit representation matters because what you say, how you present documentation, and how you respond to IRS inquiries dramatically affects the examination result. IRS auditors are trained to identify additional adjustment opportunities beyond the original audit scope, ask probing questions designed to uncover other issues, and maximize revenue adjustments whenever possible. Having professional representation ensures that the IRS receives exactly the information they're entitled to, nothing more and nothing less, while protecting you from expanding the audit or inadvertently creating new problems. Our licensed tax professionals handle all communication with revenue agents, prepare organized documentation that supports your reported income and deductions, and present legal arguments that defend your tax positions. We can represent clients in correspondence audits, office audits, field audits, and in front of the IRS Independent Office of Appeals conferences with comprehensive knowledge of tax law, IRS examination procedures, and negotiation strategies. For business audits, we manage complex issues like reasonable compensation, business expense classifications, and revenue recognition methods that require sophisticated tax knowledge. We also pursue audit reconsiderations when examinations result in unfavorable determinations based on incomplete information, missing documentation, new evidence, IRS errors, Substitute for Return (SFR) filings, correspondences not received from the IRS or incorrect legal interpretations. All of these reasons can change an audit outcome. Don't face an IRS audit alone and risk unfavorable outcomes. Contact Resolve Federal Tax Group for a free consultation and experience the confidence that comes from having experienced professionals protecting your interests throughout the examination process.
