Avoid Tax Relief Scams to Obtain the IRS Resolution You Deserve with Help From Better Business Bureau’s TrustLink Community

The IRS is increasing enforcement to unprecedented levels and with tax relief firms making regular headlines for misrepresenting their ability to resolve IRS problems, it is now more important than ever for taxpayers to check the reputation of prospective tax relief providers, such as their BBB (Better Business Bureau) rating.

The tax resolution industry has become fierce in light of the wobbly current economic conditions – this means that the number of ‘scam’ tax resolution firms has grown exponentially! Numerous tax firms are representing themselves as #1 in tax resolution and making extreme claims of solving all your IRS tax problems and eliminating your tax debts.

We regularly come across tax resolution horror stories of individuals seeking tax help and signing up for tax assistance only to be left with unreturned phone calls and un-addressed letters forwarded from the IRS, causing the taxpayer to be burdened with further levies and penalties. We take these stories of tax resolution scams to heart; we are dedicated in being the most ethical tax resolution firm and are driven in our commitment to providing the highest level of service and support to taxpayers. We don’t make misleading and idealistic promises of clearing you of  all of your tax troubles and we’re invested in more than just getting business – instead we focus on customer service.

We look at each individual’s circumstances and our tax attorneys and Certified Tax Resolution Specialists fight on their behalf to ensure the best possible outcome to their specific IRS tax problem.

But don’t take our word for it. Check out BBB’s TrustLink to see over 80 positive reviews from satisfied clients! TrustLink is the online rating community for the Better Business Bureau. As the nation’s leading tax mediation and negotiation firm, we have been an accredited Better Business Bureau member for 11 years and continue to maintain the highest BBB rating in the tax relief industry.

Ensure your decision in seeking tax help is a wise one! Be sure to check out your potential tax resolution firm or tax attorney’s  BBB Report rating. TRS has saved taxpayers an excess of $52 million dollars in back taxes and IRS penalties and is committed to providing the highest level of IRS tax help, service and support to taxpayers since 1998. We have a B+ rating, which is outstanding compared to other firms in our industry (F ratings are uncomfortably high!).

Also keep in mind that BBB ratings can be skewed by the volume of people a company serves. If a tax relief firm has served 5,000 clients over 3 years and has 20 complaints, that’s a 0.4% failure rate, or a 99.6% satisfaction rate. This can be misleading as the BBB only tracks complaints, not resolutions. Clients cannot withdraw a complaint once it is filed with the BBB – even if they received a full refund from the tax attorney and 100% satisfaction. Google-ing the words “complaint”, “rip-off” or “scam” with the tax resolution firm’s name or individual tax attorney’s name is another useful way to make sure you’re making an informed decision. You can also check the state’s bar to see if the tax attorney you’re considering  has any complaints made against them.
