| Know
Your Rights
You
have the right to be professionally represented when dealing
with the IRS.
Can
you represent yourself? Certainly. However, those who represent
themselves are at a big disadvantage because they typically do not
know their rights. They tend to reveal irrelevant information which
is then used against them.
Clients who have initially
tried to represent themselves found the experience excruciatingly
stressful and ended up making the situation much worse. Unfortunately,
IRS agents are trained to use intimidation and manipulation techniques
on taxpayers representing themselves.
We
recommend you consult with us before you say something to
the IRS you may regret. Remember, IRS employees are paid to look
out for the government’s interest, not for yours.
If you are currently dealing with the IRS you have the right to
immediately stop any questioning
and ask for time to obtain professional tax representation.
