Tax Relief Lawyers in New Rochelle

"Tax relief" is a term used to describe a few different concepts in New Rochelle, New York. It occasionally refers to actions that lower the tax rate that some taxpayers are required to pay.

When the term "tax relief" is used in the media, it's normally in the context of a politician, or someone running for elected office, assuring that they'll reduce tax rates. Essentially, "tax relief" is, in this context, another term for "tax cut."

However, when most people think of "tax relief," they are thinking of an individual, law firm, or corporation that claims to offer a way to get out of paying some or all of one's back taxes. They normally claim that they will have experienced lawyers negotiate with the IRS or New York tax authorities, to reduce your tax liability. While some of these businesses are legitimate, there are also many scams in this area.

Tax Relief Scams in New Rochelle, New York

Many scammers in New Rochelle, New York claim that they can completely absolve you of your requirement to pay your taxes - for a fee, of course.

In most cases, however, these people have absolutely no legal means to really help their "clients" ("victims" is the more accurate term), and will simply take your money and disappear. Luckily, these scams in New Rochelle, New York normally have a few elements that are dead giveaways, which you should always be on the look out for if you're contemplating hiring someone offering "tax relief."

One of the strongest indications that you're dealing with a scammer is if they assure that they can deliver a specific result. When it comes to negotiating with the IRS or state tax authorities, there are simply no guarantees, and a qualified and ethical tax relief professional will know this, and tell you as much. The unfortunate fact is that, while the IRS does have programs permitting people to negotiate a reduced tax bill, they only apply to people in extreme instances, who are unable to pay their taxes through no fault of their own. Most New Rochelle, New York residents will not be qualified.

Another red flag to look for is a demand of a large up-front payment. Many tax relief scammers in New Rochelle will not even pretend to try and assist you. Rather, they simply take the money and disappear, sometimes after making further, and illegal, charges to your credit card or withdrawals from your bank account.
