“No one likes to get a “love letter” from the IRS. Jason and his team responded quickly to my questions and concerns. Jason quickly put my mind to ease and helped me with what I thought might be an issue that needed experienced help. If I could give this team more than 5 stars, I would!”

Getting the IRS Off Your Back Has Life-Changing Results
SAVED
Suffering from severe depression and alcoholism, our client did not file federal or Georgia income tax returns for 14 years. We submitted a Voluntary Disclosure Request, which permitted our client to file tax returns for the last three years and waived all late filing penalties. This saved our client $80,498 in Georgia. And, our Penalty Abatement Request with the IRS resulted in a savings of $210,475 in penalties.
SAVED
Our client was assessed $99,851 in unpaid sales taxes related to her ex-husband’s business. She was not involved with the business but was listed as an officer by her ex-husband, which caused the Georgia Department of Revenue to assess her personally for the unpaid sales tax. We filed a Georgia Offer in Compromise based on “doubt as to liability” for $720.00 and it was accepted, saving our client $99,131.00.
SAVED
Our client, a self-employed individual, had accumulated a federal income tax liability of $196,034 for tax years 2008-2019. We submitted an Offer in Compromise and settled this liability for $860. We also settled our client’s Georgia income tax liability of approximately $15,500 for $250. Our efforts resulted in savings of over $210,000.

FAQ for Atlanta Tax Lawyers
Atlanta tax lawyers represent individuals and businesses in disputes with the IRS and state tax authorities. That work covers a broad range of situations, from negotiating installment agreements and offers in compromise to defending clients in audits, contesting tax assessments in court, and resolving payroll tax issues.
At Wiggam Law, our attorneys handle only tax matters, which means every strategy we build is grounded in deep knowledge of federal and Georgia tax law.
The earlier, the better. If you’ve received a notice from the IRS or the Georgia Department of Revenue, been notified of an audit, had a lien filed against your property, or fallen behind on payroll taxes, those are all situations where having legal representation changes the outcome.
Waiting often narrows your options. Our Atlanta tax lawyers can assess your situation quickly and outline what’s available to you before collection actions escalate.
In some cases, yes. Depending on your financial situation, options like an Offer in Compromise, penalty abatement, or Currently Not Collectible status may reduce the total amount you owe or pause collection activity while you work toward a resolution. Not every situation qualifies, and no outcome is guaranteed, but our attorneys assess every available path before recommending a strategy.
Tax law is federal in many respects, so geographic location matters less than it does in other practice areas. Wiggam Law serves clients across Georgia and nationwide.
That said, having attorneys who are familiar with the Georgia Department of Revenue and local court procedures is an advantage in state tax matters. Our team handles both federal and state tax issues from our Atlanta and Norcross offices.
A CPA handles tax preparation and accounting. A tax resolution company typically employs enrolled agents or CPAs and handles routine IRS negotiations. A tax attorney brings legal training and the ability to represent you in court, which matters in audits, disputes, and cases where litigation is a possibility.
Wiggam Law’s team includes both attorneys and enrolled agents, so clients get comprehensive representation across the full scope of their tax issues.
The IRS Has a Head Start. Let Wiggam Law Help Close the Gap.
Every day without a strategy is a day the IRS uses to its advantage. Our Atlanta tax lawyers have handled the full range of IRS and state tax disputes, from individual debt resolution to complex multi-party conservation easement cases. We serve clients across Georgia and nationwide, and we’re reachable when it matters.

Testimonials
“Jason was masterful in the interactions and negotiations with the IRS. He understands their processes down to the day, knows when and how to push for certain things, and how to get a fair conclusion. In the end, after they said I owed them $38,000, when Jason was finished, I got a $5,000 refund (a $43,000 swing in my favor). Outstanding.”
“Jason did a FANTASTIC job of guiding me through the unbelievably complex process of dealing with IRS tax debts. I had tried one of those tax relief firms that advertise on the radio all the time and, basically, got nothing. Jason assured me he could help and for A LOT LESS COST! Please give him a call, especially if you are about to give up on EVER finding real help!”
