FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Not All Tax Resolution Specialists Are Created Equal
Consumers need to be aware that all "specialists" who deal with tax resolution are NOT equal. Small research makes a big difference in hiring the right firm.
Encino, CA - One out of every six Americans has a tax problem. Tax issues are
complicated enough - dealing with the IRS directly often makes them harder to
resolve and more difficult to understand. For consumers who owe $20k or more in
back taxes, hiring a Certified
Tax Resolution Specialist is just what the doctor
ordered.
Like finding the right health care professional requires time for referral research of
qualifications, the same effort needs to go into to retaining a tax advocate who will
treat your complex situation. But let the buyer beware - not all "specialists" who
claim to deal with tax resolution are equal.
"I always advise consumers to put themselves in the driver's seat when selecting a
tax resolution firm or tax resolution specialist, says Michael Rozbruch, Founder and
CEO of Tax Resolution Services and Founder of the
Tax Problem Resolution Services Coalition.
"The number one thing for consumers to remember is that they need to do
their homework and ultimately find the specialist who will treat their specific tax need
best."
Rozbruch shares his advice on how to hire the right tax resolution firm who best
advocates for the consumer and deals directly with the IRS. A full article on his tips
has been published on the web, called: "Hiring a Tax Resolution Specialist? Not all
are created equal - Do your homework first" A simple checklist to get you started
down the road to a speedy resolution includes
-
Determine the credibility of the tax resolution specialist - seek a Certified Tax
Resolution Specialist (CTRS) who must meet educational, experience and
examination requirements prescribed by the American Society of Tax Problem
Solvers (ASTPS).
-
Determine your needs - Consider the important questions such as, what type of
tax issues are these; personal income tax, business tax problems, estate taxes, etc?
Organizing a fact list will help with research to find the best firm for those specific
needs.
-
Get on Google - Google the company name and the name of the founder with the
words "complaint," "rip-off" and "scam." Also, check their social media efforts i.e.
Facebook, and LinkedIn. This easy step can reveal customer satisfaction and help
narrow the list quickly.
-
Review the firm on the Better Business Bureau - This non-profit pro-consumer
organization provides information ranging from years in business to consumer
satisfaction.
Don't be penny-wise and dollar-foolish - Hiring the right firm means not just
considering price alone. A better measure is to determine success rate for issues like
yours.
