Our Core Services

Bank Levy Relief

If the IRS froze your bank account, we act fast to release the levy and recover your funds. Learn how we stop seizures and negotiate lasting solutions.

Innocent Spouse Relief

Don’t pay for your spouse or ex-spouse’s mistakes. If you were left in the dark on a joint tax return, we can help you qualify for full or partial relief.

IRS Audit Defense

Received an audit notice? Don’t face the IRS alone. We represent you fully, build your case, and negotiate with auditors so you don’t have to.

IRS Asset Seizure Protection

The IRS can seize homes, vehicles, or business property. We intervene immediately to stop seizures and resolve underlying liabilities.

Unfiled Tax Returns / Non-Filing Help

Haven’t filed in years? We help you catch up, avoid penalties, and get compliant with federal and state tax laws — without judgment.

Offer in Compromise (OIC)

Qualify to settle your IRS debt for less — sometimes pennies on the dollar. We build strong cases and guide you through the full offer process.

Payroll Tax Problems

Business behind on 941 deposits or facing a Trust Fund Recovery Penalty? We stop collections, protect your business, and negotiate IRS settlements.

State Tax Problems

Whether it’s the CA Franchise Tax Board, CDTFA, or any other state agency, we help you resolve state back taxes, penalties, liens, and license issues.

Tax Preparation & Strategic Planning

Accurate, compliant tax prep and proactive planning to help you build wealth, avoid penalties, and legally reduce your tax burden.

Wage Garnishment Relief

If the IRS is taking your paycheck, we can stop the garnishment — often in 24–72 hours — and work to resolve the full debt.

…your firm gave me hope, peace of mind, and a real second chance to get on with my life.

I’m extremely happy with your firm’s understanding, compassion, professionalism, and most of all the results! The IRS made a first Offer in Compromise which was not going to work for me. Your firm told me not to worry because you would re-submit to a higher level at the IRS. You then were successful at getting me a fantastic compromise. I’ve been sick with this IRS problem – really sick. . .and your firm gave me hope, peace of mind, and a real second chance to get on with my life. Thank you!

I’d like to tell you what outstanding service I have received from your firm. National Tax Aid handled my case in a very professional manner and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the concern and care of my case. Your knowledge of the process and being able to communicate it to me in a manner which was factual, as well as helping in making decisions throughout the process was superior.

I contacted National Tax Aid and they thoroughly assisted me!

I was under an enormous amount of stress due to tax issues. I contacted National Tax Aid and they thoroughly assisted me through the entire process with the IRS. My experience has been very positive from the beginning to the end. The National Tax Aid staff were both caring and professional, they assisted me in bringing to a resolution my IRS tax issues.

I own a business and fell behind on my payroll taxes. We were going through some pretty hard times. When I first consulted National Tax Aid they explained to me that they believed I had a good abatement of penalty case. National Tax Aid helped me with a considerable amount of penalties and interest being abated off of my tax liability and then negotiated a pretty good payment plan, one that I could afford to pay and stay in business.
