The IRS is exceptionally powerful, and when you bump heads with the agency it can be a nerve-wracking situation. Few people can be confident of dealing effectively with the IRS themselves, so it’s wise to have experienced representation on your side. Legal representation is provided by tax attorneys, who can help you defend your rights and protect your assets.
Our tax attorneys are nuclear warfare against the IRS. Top Tax Defenders CEO Jayson Mullins explains how our professionals go up against the IRS so you don't have to.
What is an IRS Tax Attorney
An IRS tax attorney is a qualified lawyer with extensive experience in tax law. He (or she) usually specializes in the rules that apply to tax liability at a federal, state, or municipal level. He is also qualified in the nuances of taxation as it applies to estate transfers, income from a wide range of sources, and multiple types of business transactions including intellectual property purchases.
Most tax attorneys begin by studying for an undergraduate degree in any field from a recognized institution, but the most common routes to this position are business, economics, finance, or accountancy. Students then complete a three-year program at an accredited law school with a strong tax law program, after which they write the American Bar exam to become qualified tax attorneys.

Benefits of Hiring a Tax Lawyer
Apart from the most obvious benefit of resolving your immediate tax problem, there are a number of other advantages by hiring the right IRS tax attorney. These include:
In addition, you have the advantage of quick access to someone with superior training and skills, who can steer you in the right direction and reduce the stress involved in these situations.
Tax attorneys come in all shapes and sizes. Some are attached to larger legal firms, others to tax consulting companies. When you need to retain professional assistance to deal with the IRS, don’t be persuaded to appoint the first tax lawyer you come across. Conduct some online research to determine whether the person offering to represent you has the qualifications to do so, and to see what reviews other clients have left about their services.
Reputable IRS tax lawyers are willing to provide references, and often come highly recommended by family or friends. At Top Tax Defenders, we have access to a number of dependable, experienced tax attorneys, enabling us to provide a full range of tax services to resolve your IRS problems fast.
