IRS Representation in Carrollton, TX
Understanding the IRS Notice and Account
An IRS matter often starts with a notice, but the notice may reflect only one part of the account. Before responding, it can be necessary to confirm the tax periods involved, the source of the balance or adjustment, prior correspondence, collection status, and any response or appeal deadline.
Margolies Law Office helps Carrollton taxpayers obtain and review relevant account information, organize notices and records, and determine whether the matter involves an examination, an unpaid assessment, missing returns, penalties, or active collection enforcement.
Restoring Filing Compliance
Unfiled returns can limit the resolution options the IRS will consider and may lead the IRS to prepare substitute returns using information available to the government. The first step is usually to identify which returns are required and assemble accurate income, deduction, and filing records.
The firm assists Carrollton clients with unfiled tax returns as part of a broader federal tax strategy. Filing old returns does not by itself resolve every balance, but restoring compliance can make it possible to evaluate collection alternatives using accurate account information.
Responding to IRS Collection Action
Federal tax collection can involve liens, bank levies, wage levies, demands for financial information, and deadlines for administrative review. A response should account for the urgency of the notice while also addressing the underlying balance and filing history.
Depending on eligibility and the evidence, the available paths may include an IRS installment agreement, an offer in compromise, or innocent spouse relief. No single resolution is appropriate for every taxpayer, and the IRS applies different financial and procedural requirements to each option.
Business and Payroll Tax Representation
Federal payroll tax problems require careful attention because the IRS may investigate whether individuals responsible for collecting and paying trust fund taxes should be personally assessed. The relevant facts can include authority over finances, knowledge of unpaid taxes, payment decisions, deposit history, and communications with the IRS.
Andrew represents Carrollton businesses and individuals in payroll tax matters, including efforts to restore filing and deposit compliance, respond to interviews or collection contacts, and evaluate payment or resolution options. The firm handles federal IRS matters and does not represent taxpayers in Texas state or local tax disputes.
Starting a Federal Tax Case
Useful documents may include every IRS notice and envelope, recent and unfiled returns, prior correspondence, proof of payments, examination records, and financial information related to the periods at issue. For an IRS audit, the document request and scope of the examination should be reviewed before records are submitted.
Margolies Law Office serves Carrollton from its Dallas office at 7920 Belt Line Rd #650, Dallas, TX 75254. Consultations and representation can be handled in person, by phone, or remotely when appropriate. To discuss a federal IRS matter, contact the office, call (469) 626-7760, or review the firm’s complete IRS tax services.

When the IRS Says You Owe and You Say You Don’t: How Tax Court Actually Works

The federal tax system collects roughly $4.7 trillion annually, and the IRS initiates that process with a determination – not a conversation. When that determination is wrong, or when the amount is in dispute, most people don’t realize they have
“The Margolies were very up front about my tax issues. They walked me through the whole process. And were very punctual about resolving my tax issue and getting me back on track. Andrew and Jennifer are a true dream team. I would highly recommend their services”

“Andrew handled my complex tax matter with extreme professionalism and attention to detail. Communication was easy and I always knew he had my interests at heart, legally representing me.”
T B.
“ Andrew Margolies did a great job for my mom who had paid her taxes, but the IRS failed to associate the payment with her account. She kept getting letters demanding payment with accrued interest and fees even though they had cashed her check.
After Andrew started working on it, the letters stopped. We were notified there had been a credit to my mom’s account, and finally the payment was properly applied with a zero balance. She is even receiving a refund.
We’re very happy with Andrew and would highly recommend him.”
N B.
“I came to Andrew Margolies with a significant IRS issue that I had been losing sleep over for months. I spoke with Jennifer on the phone, got in the same day for a consultation, and had a full resolution within 2 business days for a reasonable price. Andrew did exactly what he said he was going to do and provided me with a thorough resolution.
Being 9 months pregnant, Andrew was extremely sensitive to my timeline urgency and was on the phone with me at 5pm on a Friday helping me with my case.
Before meeting with Andrew, I called around to 10 different offices. All of those interactions felt like a sales funnel and a money grab. I can’t explain the relief I have having chosen to work with Andrew and having a resolution within days. We’re absolutely thrilled with the value and the experience.”
C S.
“100% recommended. I had a problem regarding my tax return since the beginning of 2023 and had been trying to follow up myself until 2025 with no progress. I decided to work with Attorney Andrew and Jennifer and in less than a month my problem was solved.
Attorney Andrew is very knowledgeable with reasonable fees and Jennifer is very responsive to all requests and questions. Most importantly they have business ethics. I will not look further if I have any more tax problems.”
