Lead by its founder, Jeffrey Galante, JG Tax Group has successfully negotiated with
the IRS on Collection, Examination and Appeals matters ranging from less complex
to very complex corporate tax issues involving millions of dollars. We have
an outstanding record of audits results, many resulting in no adjustments being
recommended by the IRS. JG Tax Group also has a successful record of
negotiating with the IRS to abate penalties including late filing, late paying,
and accuracy related penalties. On one particular employment tax case, we
were successful in getting the IRS to back off their in assertion that the client
owed over $600,000.
Instead, the client owed nothing to the IRS.
We strive to put our clients at ease. Our strategy is to first brief
the client as to what to expect during the audit, and then actively engage ourselves in the audit, to ensure that it stays on track and doesn't become a fishing expedition. Several clients have said that "the IRS acted differently when we attended
the audit session. The IRS Revenue Agents made sure that they complied
with their own policies and procedures. The Revenue Agents knew that
we were aware of all of the IRS' policies and procedures, and that we would tell
them or their managers when they weren't following their proper audit procedures.

5 Years of Tax Returns Completed and Filed with the IRS Thanks
so much for completing all my tax returns. I can now sleep much better. You
are my new best friend! Thanks again. Jennifer - taxpayer
No Change Audit Result
Client was very, very happy with Jeff and the experience he brought to
the engagement. I believe in the client's eyes, Jeff significantly exceeded
his, the company's, and their attorney's expectations. William - CPA.
All Penalties Waived
Jeff came in and helped us during a difficult IRS audit. His efforts
concluded in a successful waiving of all penalties. His writing and researching skills are excellent. Jeff was instrumental in bringing the audit to a favorable
conclusion. The client is very appreciative of Jeff's services. Carl
- CPA
Great Rapport with the IRS
Jeff is very credible and confident in his knowledge of the procedures necessary
during an IRS audit, but comes across as very personable with the Revenue Agent. He very quickly established a great rapport. This situation has
been unique in that the client is now a shell company and the IRS audit procedure
was a bit different. Jeff has been very pragmatic and did an excellent job of working with the Revenue Agent in determining the appropriate
audit plan. Denise - CPA
Excellent Knowledge of IRS Policies and Procedures
Jeff very effectively consulted on a rather complex IRS Appeals issue and had great
recommendations for the client. Jeff had an excellent knowledge
of the IRS Appeals process and how to navigate it effectively. I would consider
it a privilege to work with Jeff again. Dennis - business owner
IRS Fully Conceded Their Position
Jeff helped me with an IRS Revenue Agent's proposed assessment Appeals
hearing. He was well prepared. He understood the issue well. He was very well versed in the background case law and related statute and applicable
regulations. He was very successful in convincing the Appeals
Officer that the taxpayer's position was correct. Robert - CPA.
No Change Result
Jeff became involved in this client's case when the IRS Revenue Agent declined
to negotiate a settlement after reviewing our protest letter. It was suggested
that this case would be perfect for the Appeals Fast Track Mediation process, which
is Jeff's specialty. After arranging the Fast Track conference with the
IRS and sharing our strategy with the IRS and client, the IRS called shortly before
the conference to fully concede and to say that they would issue a no
change report. C J. - CPA
Jeff's IRS Experience was Invaluable
Jeff's experience and insight were invaluable in guiding our internal team
and client through the Appeals Mediation process. He communicated effectively
and enabled us to understand the process and make sound recommendations to the client. For example, he was able to obtain statistical information to show the number of
cases that used an external mediator and to walk the client through the pros and
cons of an external mediator. Also, he was able to provide insight into the
choice of an Appeals mediator due to his intimate knowledge of the people and institution.
[This case resulted in a successful post-Appeals mediation, and the client was very
happy with the result.] Larry CPA
Emergency Relief Team solved client out of the United State
We recently received a very nice letter from a client who lives in Poland, has a part-time residence in Florida and has businesses in both places who had direct dealings with our Emergency
Relief Team. Janusz came to us because the IRS had said that his company owed
employment taxes from several years. However, Janusz said that he didn't pay
any salaries during those tax periods, and he couldn't understand why the IRS was
sending him threatening letters. When JG Tax Group got involved, the IRS was threatening
to levy or seize some of the company's assets.
Janusz wrote: Thank you very much for helping me. JG Tax Group worked quickly and
efficiently by within one business day first stopping the IRS collection actions,
and then working with me to file the necessary paperwork with the IRS to resolve
my tax problem. Now instead of getting threatening letters from the IRS telling
me that they're going to take my property, I'm now getting a refund. Thank
you for defending me before the IRS. I knew that the IRS was wrong, but I
didn't have the courage to confront them. I'm very happy that you didn't
have the same fear and was able to tell the IRS that they were wrong and got back
the money the IRS owed me.
JG Tax Group's Emergency Relief Team stopped the IRS' seizure action in one day
and then provided to the IRS the tax returns they needed to solve the problem. Before JG Tax Group was asked to help, Janusz was being harassed by the IRS for
almost a year. Within about a month, JG Tax Group was able to solve the problem.
Here are some Wage Garnishment Release success stories:
Don from Texas contacted us on October 23rd at 2pm with a wage garnishment
in effect. Our ERT contacted the IRS and confirmed his 2005 and 2006 tax returns
were not filed. With a questionnaire sent to Don and his income documents retrieved
from the IRS, the ERT was able to file his returns and put him back in compliance
with the IRS via fax. Our ERT was then able to procure a wage garnishment release
by October 27th at 10am.
Rick from Maryland contacted us on October 24th at 9am. By 12pm, the ERT learned
his 2004 and 2005 tax returns were not filed. Rick's income documents were retrieved
from the IRS and with our questionnaire, the ERT then filed his taxes. By October
27th, his wage garnishment was also released.
You received a notice of "Intent to Levy" 30 days ago and you forgot about it or
ignored it. Now, it's payday; expecting a check, you open the envelope and find that
the IRS has taken most of your money. What's left is not enough to pay the rent,
car payment, buy groceries, or pay the rest of the bills. This action will continue
on every check due to you, until the tax owed is paid in full.
Now you're in big financial trouble. No matter how hard you plead with your employer, they can't give you your money. Once a wage garnishment is filed with
your employer, your employer is required by law to collect a large percentage of
each of your paychecks.
We are regularly retained to negotiate the release of IRS wage garnishments. Our extensive experience and our inside knowledge of the IRS gives us the ability to stop wage garnishments in 2-3 business days. This allows our clients to begin to
receive their full wages, but it is not a permanent solution; once our clients'
wages have been restored, the problem with the IRS still has to be addressed.
JG Tax Group will address the IRS tax problems for our clients by negotiating with
the IRS for the best possible solution, which may be one of the following:
An Offer
in Compromise, an affordable payment plan, or to have our client declared as Currently Not Collectible with the IRS. Each one of our clients have different and complex
tax problems. We treat each client as an individual, so there is no one solution
for every client. We will find an affordable and permanent solution to your IRS
problem.
