When asked to comment, Goldburd said, "Tax attorneys are the best professionals to contact for individuals and small business owners who need to resolve tax issues with the IRS. However, several widespread misconceptions about tax attorneys can create unrealistic expectations for clients."
One common misconception is that tax attorneys can quickly solve all tax-related issues.
When asked to elaborate, Goldburd said, "Many of our clients don't have a reasonable timeframe of how quickly their IRS problems will be resolved. The system often works slowly, which means that we work slowly as well. The best thing to do is to contact an experienced tax attorney and ask about an estimated timeframe to set realistic expectations from the beginning."
Many people in trouble with the IRS also incorrectly assume that a tax attorney will completely get rid of all tax debts.
"People who have tax issues such as not filing taxes for years or being confronted with an IRS audit for not being truthful on their tax returns will receive letters from the IRS and will probably have to pay at least some of the penalties," Goldburd said.
Goldburd added that contacting a tax attorney early on could help stem further collection efforts from tax authorities.
"The earlier the better. Tax matters can get complicated rather quickly, so one of the biggest benefits of hiring a tax lawyer is that they can create a strategy to help overcome tax issues and simplify complex documents such as IRS letters," he commented.
Another common misperception among the public is that their work stops after hiring a tax attorney.
“Unfortunately, a tax attorney can’t do all the work for you, and you’ll need to be in constant communication with the law office so they can get accurate documents and information from you in a timely matter to meet IRS deadlines. This will ultimately help your legal counsel to prepare a better case on your behalf,” he said.
This is particularly important, Goldburd says, during an audit.
When asked to explain, he commented, "One of the most significant roles that a tax attorney can play is by handling all communication with the IRS for tax resolution as well as meeting with an audit officer on your behalf. This typically speeds up a process that would otherwise be much slower without the help of a seasoned attorney."
