Andre Carman, tax and business attorney, recently helped a client who was behind on their payroll (941) taxes to the IRS. In fact, they were $160,000 in the hole. On Monday morning, Andre received a call that the IRS had levied (aka garnished) the Company's payroll bank account. The Company had $42,000 dollars in the bank for a payroll that was supposed to be processed that evening. Because of his previous relationship with the IRS Revenue Officer responsible for the Company's account collection, Andre immediately picked up the phone and contacted the Revenue Officer. After explaining that the IRS's levy was going to cause severe hardship to the Company and its clients, the Revenue Officer agreed to lift the bank account levy. On Tuesday, the very next day, Andre received the following note from his client:

“Funds are back in our accounts. Thank you so much for all your help!!!

----Blessings. John”

Andre will now help the Company negotiate a monthly installment payment agreement with the IRS that fits with the Company's budget so that they can put their tax problems behind them.

If you or anybody or business you know has tax problems, Andre would be pleased to discuss resolution options with them. Andre is available for tax work statewide.
