I was in debt to the IRS for quite a bit of money. I had reached out to a lot of services that were willing to assist me but wasn’t sure just who to trust. I took a chance with the Tax Defense Group and that was the best decision I ever made. They helped me tremendously, my balance with the IRS was reduced a great deal. The Tax Defense Group helped me settle my problem, I would recommend them to anyone with tax problems. Steve Burdett

So our tax story is short and sweet
So our tax story is short and sweet: we simply weren't paying enough taxes, and our deficit spiraled out of control to the tune of nearly $100K.
My wonderful uncle set us up with the Tax Defense, who kept the IRS at bay for us until we were able to settle our debt.
In particular, Arianna H is a gem. She was patient and respectful and RESPONSIVE. There we times when she'd be slammed but she always made time to respond.
These folks aren't miracle workers; they don't over promise results--but they DO provide a great deal of relief, by speaking with the IRS so you don't have to, and "pausing" IRS action so that we could find a way to resolve our debt. They kept us informed and educated throughout the process.
I wholly recommend working with The Tax Defense.

Happy Customer
I have been a customer of the Tax Defense Group since 2017. They were able to successfully negotiate a "Currently Not Collectible" tax status for me. I had never had a tax issue before and was extremely stressed over the amount I owed. The Tax Defense Group has been taking care of my annual taxes since this time. They are always responsive, knowledgeable and helpful with all of my tax questions. I have worked with many members on their team, Neil Stein, Alberto Ornelas and for the past couple years, Matt Sitler. I am extremely satisfied with their representation and the quality of work. I am confident in all of the advice and work that they have completed on my behalf. Thank you!

Jose’s case, I highly recommend tax defense group
I’ll never be grateful enough, they change my life originally I couldn’t even have a bank account and was told by many people the IRS could file legal punishment against me. Instead they brought my balance from $50,000 to $0 and now I can apply for a regular job and apply for credit account.They were patient and they really know tax law. Thank you so much Tax Defense Group!!!

Very professionals
The service was great. They take care of my case and couple of months later I receive a letter from the IRS accepting my offer in compromise... of course I sent the payment and now I can sleep with no stress. Thanks to all The Tax Defense group team.

It the almost worst thing that you can experience.
He I was at Work and then all of a sudden I get a call from the IRS stating that I was behind on my Taxes and they wanted there money NOW. So I didn't know who I could turn to for Help. It was a nightmare being hunted down like a Animal. The letter and phone calls of the IRS TAKING YOU HARD EARNED MONEY was no Joke. So that when I got in touch withe the TaxDefenseGroup . They helped me and resolve my night8mare. Now I can sleep at night. The professional Attorney that are on staff really moved in my favor. Now I can sleep peacefully at night . Thank you TaxDefenseGroup
Two-time success story
I am a two-time success story for Tax Defense Group. I owed $70,000 to IRS and had no way to pay it. The first time, these knowledgeable case managers/enrolled agents were able to qualify me for a special program that worked for 4 years. The second time, I knew I was in good hands with Matt Sitler, who upon evaluating my situation gave me my final strategy, offer and compromise. Matt worked with me during the pandemic, assigning me to Alberto Ornelas, my former case manager whom I trusted. Be prepared to pay the retainer for all the work that must be done; it can be tedious, and take months, but it’s worth it—my offer and compromise was finally accepted for $1565.00 and I have peace of mind again!! Because they know what they’re doing, I can’t thank Matt, Alberto, and the entire Tax Defense Group team enough!!

They defended my budget.
I really derived pleasure from making use of the service which they offer. It was very profitable and saved me lots of money.
The Tax Defense Group Scam or Incompetent?
The company is a scam. They collect money for services that are unacceptable, IF they provide any service at all. I paid, got scammed, so letting anyone seeking info know this place is not real! Check out the company responses here, on Yelp and at BBB and see how defensive they are and how the issues all seem to be the fault of the customer. Non-response lowers their scores more so they respond with lies to at least say something. There is no transparency, no accountability, no customer SERVICE.
See Company response: Initial call was 10/14. I was to get a call back by 10/21, I didn't, today I'm told the person who did the return won't be in until 10/26 THEN I'll get a call (hasty? & yes I have receipts) someone is lying. Again a defensive response that makes clear I will have to wait because company management dodges accountability or is incapable of handling tax issues. More time was spent on crafting the complaint response than on trying to understand and address the issue. My initial question remains...
