Sometimes — Offer in Compromise lets the IRS accept a fraction of the debt if you legitimately can't pay. About 33% of OICs are accepted; we screen carefully before charging.
Do you handle criminal tax cases?
Yes — IRS Criminal Investigation Division (CID) inquiries, willful failure to file, tax evasion, and FBAR violations.

Foreign Bank Account Report required when aggregate foreign-account balance exceeds $10K. Penalties can be 50% of balance. Voluntary disclosure programs minimize penalty if you come forward.
