If you have tax problems and are looking for professional help it is important to find a reliable tax company to help. There are many companies out there that can help, large and small. Both large and small companies have their benefits. Depending on what you are looking for in a tax company and what your tax situation is should determine what type of company you should use.
Small tax firms are typically better for establishing a long standing relationship to file taxes and maintain accounting records. If you own a business and you need someone to help maintain your books and do normal tax filings that every business needs to make, it is a good idea to go with a local company since this will be an ongoing relationship. Even if you are looking for a professional to help with tax returns and general accounting a local tax firm would be the way to go. Small firms are not better for handling complex taxes owed and back taxes issues. Small, local tax companies tend to focus on the normal tax filings and don’t have the manpower and expertise needed to efficiently and effectively handle the complex tax issues that are not seen as frequently.
Large tax firms that serve individuals nationwide have a great advantage over the small tax firms that tend to serve local communities. These large tax firms are able to achieve efficiencies on more complex tax issues. Many of the large firms will hire a variety of different tax professionals (Tax attorneys, CPAs, Enrolled Agents, CPAs & Ex IRS Agents) to handle complex tax issues such as unfiled tax returns, large amounts of taxes owed, tax levies, tax liens etc on a daily basis. A tax professional that handles tax levies every day is going to be more efficient and effective than a tax professional that handles them occasionally. Most small firms only see these types of cases occasionally, so it would be a wiser choice to go with a large firm in these cases. Large firms are typically cheaper as well because they know how to navigate IRS issues quicker and more efficient, therefore billing out less total hours on your case. Below are some instances where it would be a good choice to hire a large tax firm that helps individuals nationwide:
- Offer in Compromise Help
- Tax Levy Help
- Tax Lien Help
- Wage Garnishment Help
- Bank Levy Help
- Installment Agreement Help
- Payment Plan Help
- Penalty Abatement Help
- Audit Help
- Innocent Spouse Relief Help
- Back Taxes Help
- Unfiled Tax Help
- Tax Settlement Help
Most people have an apprehension to using a large tax firm that they cannot sit down with directly because they are not local, they shouldn’t. Tax cases are slow moving and are all done by mail and email and there is no need to use a local firm. Everything can be done more efficiently over the phone and through email. Hiring a large nationwide tax firm is a great idea to resolve complex tax issues because you have all the best resources and professionals in one central location to help you with your problem.
