I have two key areas of tax practice. First is resolution for those who are stressed out from a taxing authority. Second, tax advisory to keep you from becoming stressed out over taxes (and authorities). Unlike some heavily marketed and pressure tax resolution services, I charge a fee to review your facts and circumstances to know in advance what your chances are to obtain any given resolution, including Offer In Compromise and Installment Agreements, INSTEAD of charging clients for the entire fee, only to have most of the applications rejected. My goal is to work with you as your advocate, and not attempt to pressure sell you solutions without even knowing what is your best option. My tax focus is on small business and rental property owners, and helping my clients keep more after tax income. I'm successful when my clients are successful.

That said, tenants are allowed to cause normal 'wear and tear' ... Read More
- Q. My employer gave me two different 1099 one with the wrong ss # and decided to file my taxes without my permission
- A: You have a few issues here. First, and maybe most important is it's generally illegal to sign another's original tax return without proper authorization. You may wish to contact the IRS and the identity theft department regarding another filing your tax return, or speak to an attorney regarding the matter.
Next, "employers" don't issue 1099's to employees. If you're an employee, you should be issued a W2 for the year in question, so either you were not given the proper tax form, or you're a subcontractor of the business. Depending on your status, your rights will vary with your best resolution. In California, many former subcontractors are now considered ... Read More
