IRS Representation in Fort Worth, TX
Evaluating an IRS Notice or Account Problem
An IRS letter is a snapshot of the government’s position, not necessarily a complete explanation of the account. Several notices may address the same balance from different angles, and an older examination or filing event may explain why the newest letter was issued.
For Fort Worth taxpayers, Andrew reconstructs the sequence of events before choosing a response. That review can include transcripts, prior submissions, payment records, assessment dates, collection activity, and the time remaining to challenge or correct the IRS position. The immediate objective is to identify what requires action now and what must be investigated further.
IRS Audits and Administrative Disputes
An audit is an evidence-driven process. The key questions are what the examiner is reviewing, which items remain disputed, and which records actually establish the taxpayer’s position. A focused production can be more useful than sending a large volume of documents without explanation.
Andrew provides IRS audit representation for Fort Worth clients. His work may include communicating with the examiner, preparing organized responses, analyzing proposed changes, and considering an administrative appeal if the examination cannot be resolved on an acceptable basis.
Collection, Tax Debt, and Filing Problems
A collection case usually has two separate problems: stopping or managing immediate enforcement and finding a sustainable way to address the liability. Liens, levies, financial disclosures, penalties, and missing filings can interact, so treating only the latest notice may leave the underlying problem unresolved.
Possible paths include completing delinquent federal returns, proposing an IRS payment plan, determining whether an offer in compromise is supportable, or examining innocent spouse relief. The correct route depends on compliance, collection status, financial facts, and the legal basis for the assessed debt.
Business and Payroll Tax Exposure
Payroll liabilities involve money withheld for the federal government and can create consequences beyond the company itself. When deposits or employment-tax returns fall behind, the IRS may examine who exercised financial control, who knew about the delinquency, and how payment decisions were made.
In federal payroll tax cases, Andrew helps Fort Worth clients assemble the relevant records, understand potential business and individual exposure, communicate with the IRS, and work toward current compliance and an appropriate resolution. The practice is limited to federal IRS matters; it does not include Texas state or municipal tax controversies.
Preparing to Discuss a Federal Tax Matter
Before a consultation, arrange IRS correspondence in date order and note any deadline that has not passed. Include returns for the affected years, records of payments or prior submissions, and the name of anyone who previously communicated with the IRS. For a business matter, also gather the relevant employment-tax filings and deposit history.
Fort Worth clients are represented from Margolies Law Office’s Dallas location at 7920 Belt Line Rd #650, Dallas, TX 75254. Many steps can be completed by telephone and secure document exchange, with an in-person meeting available when useful.

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.”
