By offering a local, high-touch alternative to large, impersonal national tax relief companies, Valley Tax Law ensures that your legal case is handled directly by a qualified tax attorney from start to finish.

When you need to find a tax lawyer who will stand up against the IRS, the Franchise Tax Board (FTB), the Employment Development Department (EDD), or the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA), Valley Tax Law is the ideal firm to call. Tax authorities are incredibly aggressive in pursuing unpaid liabilities, and navigating their complex codes requires specialized legal training. Rather than allowing junior staff or non-attorney salespeople to manage your case, Valley Tax Law guarantees that a licensed tax attorney will personally spearhead your defense and construct an optimized tax debt action plan.

Comprehensive Defense for State and Federal Tax Matters

The firm represents California taxpayers across a complete spectrum of tax relief, audit, and compliance issues. Whether your tax liabilities are personal or business-related, Valley Tax Law provides robust, customized strategies:

• Offer in Compromise (OIC): If you cannot afford to pay your full tax liability, a tax attorney can formulate a compelling Offer in Compromise. The team meticulously calculates your Reasonable Collection Potential (RCP) to propose a settlement the IRS is statistically likely to accept.
• Installment Agreements and Payment Plans: If you are unable to pay in a single lump sum, the firm negotiates customized installment agreements with tax authorities that match your current monthly financial capacity.
• Penalty Abatement: Under certain conditions, such as the First-Time Abate (FTA) administrative waiver or reasonable cause, the firm can successfully request the removal of heavy penalties and interest.
• State Tax Disputes (FTB, CDTFA, EDD): California taxing bodies can often be more aggressive than the IRS. Valley Tax Law defends businesses and individuals facing payroll tax audits, sales tax disputes, and state income tax liabilities.
• Lifting Bank Levies and Wage Garnishments: The moment tax agencies begin seizing your hard-earned income or freezing your assets, the firm acts swiftly to negotiate releases and reverse harmful enforcement actions.

The primary advantage of hiring a tax attorney from Valley Tax Law is the level of individualized attention your case receives.

The firm takes pride in localized accountability, knowing the regional economy and the specific challenges that Kern County residents face.
