Tax Relief Lawyers in Akron

"Tax relief" is a term used to describe a few different concepts in Akron, Ohio. It sometimes refers to actions that lower the tax rate that some taxpayers are obliged to pay.

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

However, many people associate the phrase "tax relief" with individuals, corporations, or law firms that offer services claiming to reduce or eliminate one's tax liability - getting them out of their obligation to pay the taxes. Most of the time, they'll say that they have skilled negotiators on their staff who can negotiate with the tax collectors in Ohio or the IRS, to lower your tax bill. Some of these businesses are forthright, and have the best interests of their customers in mind. However, many of them are scams.

Tax Relief Scams in Akron, Ohio

Many scammers in Akron, Ohio claim that they can completely discharge you of your obligation to pay your taxes - for a fee, of course.

But buyer beware: these scammers in Akron, Ohio, and elsewhere, cannot possibly deliver on their promises, and they know it. Thankfully, most tax relief scams have a few common factors that can give them away to vigilant consumers.

Probably the strongest indication that a tax relief organization is a scam is a guarantee that they can deliver a specific result. If anyone makes an unequivocal promise that they can absolve your tax debt, they are lying to you, plain and simple. This is because it is impossible to honestly make such a promise. The fact is, most people are not suitable for any IRS programs that let some taxpayers reduce their tax liability. This goes for most people in Akron, Ohio, as well.

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

How Can a Tax Relief Attorney in Akron, Ohio Help?

If you find that you can't pay your taxes, and this is not a result of any fault or irresponsibility on your part, a tax attorney in Akron, Ohio may well be able to advise you.

If you hire a knowledgeable Akron, Ohio tax lawyer, your attorney will be able to provide you with honest advice about your legal situations vis-à-vis your taxes.

Plus, in the very rare event that your attorney tries to defraud you, you have much more legal recourse against them than you would have against some fly-by-night "tax relief" company.
