5 tax attorneys practise in Fort Wayne, handling IRS and state audits, appeals, collection matters such as liens and levies, installment agreements and offers in compromise, payroll tax liability and criminal tax investigations.

Be sceptical of anyone advertising guaranteed settlements for pennies on the dollar. Offers in compromise are decided on a formula.
