IRS Tax Challenges in Richardson, Texas — Guidance From Former IRS Attorneys

Tax matters involving the IRS can arise for many reasons—missing filings, questions about reported income, unexpected notices, or disagreements with how a particular issue was assessed. At Gregory Law Group, PLLC, we work with individuals and businesses in Richardson who need experienced assistance navigating federal tax concerns. With more than 25 years of combined experience as former IRS Attorneys, we understand how the IRS approaches examinations, collection actions, and procedural reviews, and we help taxpayers address these issues in a structured and informed manner.

Our boutique tax practice is located in Dallas, Texas (by appointment only), and we assist clients throughout Richardson, Collin County, and the broader Dallas–Fort Worth region.

Helping Richardson Taxpayers Respond to IRS Letters and Inquiries

IRS notices often reference missing information, inconsistencies in reported income, or deadlines taxpayers were unaware of. Many Richardson residents reach out after receiving multiple letters and want clarity on what the IRS is asking for and what the next steps may be. We review each notice, explain its purpose, and outline potential consequences. When it is appropriate, we take over communication with the IRS to help ensure that responses are accurate, complete, and submitted within the required timeframes.

IRS Examinations and Audit Representation in Richardson

Audits may focus on a single tax item or may involve a broader review of income, deductions, or business activities. Correspondence audits typically require detailed written responses, while office or field examinations may involve interviews and document reviews. We assist Richardson taxpayers by organizing records, drafting responses, preparing explanations for IRS examiners, and addressing proposed findings. If adjustments are proposed, we identify whether administrative appeal rights are available and outline the potential advantages of pursuing them.

Addressing IRS Collections, Balances Due, and Potential Enforcement

Outstanding tax balances can arise from estimated tax issues, amended returns, examination adjustments, or filing delays. Once a balance moves into the collection process, the IRS may consider liens, levies, or other actions depending on the circumstances. We assist Richardson taxpayers by confirming the accuracy of IRS records, evaluating whether penalties or interest were assessed correctly, and determining available resolution pathways—including installment agreements or temporary relief options. We also communicate with IRS collection personnel to help minimize unnecessary escalation.

Late or Unfiled Federal Tax Returns

Taxpayers sometimes fall behind on filing due to personal circumstances, unavailable documentation, business transitions, or uncertainty about filing obligations. Bringing past filings up to date is often necessary before the IRS will consider any resolution options. We help Richardson taxpayers identify the years still required, gather available documentation, prepare accurate filings, and manage the submission of past-due returns under applicable IRS procedures.

IRS Appeals and Representation Before the United States Tax Court

When a taxpayer disagrees with an IRS determination, the Office of Appeals may offer an opportunity to resolve the matter without litigation. Appeals Officers review cases independently and evaluate legal and factual arguments that were not fully considered during the initial review. We prepare formal protest submissions, outline relevant legal positions, and represent Richardson taxpayers throughout the appeals process. If the matter proceeds further, we provide representation before the United States Tax Court.

Sensitive IRS Matters and Situations Involving Potential Criminal Exposure

Some tax concerns involve sensitive financial or personal details, while others raise questions that may involve potential criminal implications. Attorney-client privilege allows taxpayers to discuss their situations candidly and securely. We conduct a thorough review of the facts, evaluate potential risks, explain available protections, and communicate with government personnel where appropriate in a careful, structured manner.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did I receive a notice asking about income from a freelance or contract job?

IRS records often include Forms 1099 reported by third parties. If the IRS cannot match this information to your return, it may send a notice requesting clarification. We help determine whether the reported income is accurate and prepare an appropriate response.

Why is the IRS reviewing my charitable deductions?

Charitable contributions must meet documentation and substantiation requirements. If receipts or acknowledgments appear incomplete, the IRS may request additional proof. We help evaluate the available documentation and prepare the necessary explanation.

How should I respond if the IRS is questioning education-related tax credits?

Education credits frequently trigger inquiries when information from educational institutions does not match what was reported on the return. We review school-provided records and IRS transcripts to prepare a response that addresses any discrepancies.

Why did the IRS adjust my refund?

Refund changes may occur due to clerical corrections, math error notices, or mismatches with IRS records. We help determine whether the adjustment is correct and advise on disputing it when appropriate.

Can the IRS call me about a balance or missing return?

Although the IRS sometimes contacts taxpayers by phone, most initial communication is sent by mail. We help locals verify whether the communication is legitimate and how it should be handled.

What if a notice was sent to my former address after I moved to Richardson?

IRS notices are generally considered delivered when mailed to the last address on file. We help correct the address on file, determine which notices were issued, and advise on whether deadlines remain open.
