The IRS Problem on Your Desk Isn’t Going Away on Its Own.
- An IRS notice arrives, and you don’t know what it means or how serious it is.
- Collection pressure is building, and every week without action makes it worse.
- Unfiled returns have compounded into a problem that feels too large to tackle.
- The stakes aren’t abstract. Your business, your home, and your financial future are on the line.
There is a path forward. Our Atlanta tax lawyers work through every available option and build a strategy around your specific situation.

Tax Problems Don’t Define You. How You Handle Them Might.
Whatever brought you to this point, our Atlanta tax attorneys approach your situation without judgment and without unnecessary delay. Tax issues follow people from all walks of life. Our job is to help you resolve yours.
We Only Practice Tax Law
Tax law is not one of several services we offer. It is the only work we do. Whether you are facing an IRS audit, mounting payroll tax liability, or a conservation easement dispute, our attorneys bring focused knowledge of federal and Georgia tax law to every case. That singular focus shapes every strategy we build.
We Know How the IRS Operates
Dealing with the IRS requires more than legal knowledge. It requires an understanding of how the agency thinks, how it negotiates, and where it has room to move. Our Atlanta tax lawyers communicate directly with state and federal tax agencies, cutting through the bureaucracy so you don’t have to navigate it alone.
Relief Is Possible for Less Than You Owe
Legal Tax Resolution Services for IRS and State Tax Issues in Atlanta and Nationwide
Our Atlanta tax lawyers handle the full range of IRS and Georgia state tax matters. From stopping collection actions to resolving complex international tax issues, our legal tax services cover every stage of the resolution process.
STOP COLLECTION ACTIONS
- Stop IRS and State Collections — When enforcement begins, we move quickly to intervene and halt further action.
- Tax Lien — A federal tax lien clouds your assets and your credit. We work to address liens before they do lasting financial damage.
- Tax Levy — A levy gives the IRS authority to seize your property or funds. Our attorneys work to release levies and protect what you’ve built.
- Wage Garnishment — When the IRS garnishes wages, paychecks shrink fast. We pursue release and work toward a long-term resolution.
IRS NEGOTIATION PROGRAMS
- Offer in Compromise — In qualifying cases, we pursue settlements that resolve tax debt for less than the full amount owed.
- IRS Installment Agreements — We negotiate payment arrangements structured around what you can actually afford.
- Currently Not Collectible — If you cannot pay without significant financial hardship, we pursue status that pauses IRS collection activity.
- Innocent Spouse Relief — When a tax liability stems from a spouse’s actions, we pursue relief options designed to protect you.
BUSINESS TAX
- Atlanta Business Tax Attorney — From IRS audits to tax debt negotiation, we represent Atlanta businesses at every stage of a federal tax dispute.
- Georgia DOR Tax Representation — State tax issues with the Georgia Department of Revenue require a focused response. We represent businesses and individuals in Georgia DOR matters directly.
IRS AUDIT & REPRESENTATION
- IRS Audit — An audit doesn’t have to end with a higher tax bill. We build your defense, contest assessments, and pursue the best available outcome.
- Negotiate with the IRS — We handle direct negotiations with the IRS on installment agreements, offers in compromise, penalty relief, and more.
- Tax Representation — When an IRS decision needs to be challenged, we represent you in Tax Court, collection due process hearings, and beyond.
UNFILED TAXES
Get hands-on support to resolve unfiled tax issues.
- Apply for Voluntary Disclosure
- Request Penalty Abatement
EMPLOYMENT TAX
- Employment Taxes (Main) — Payroll tax problems threaten both your business and your personal assets. We pursue resolution before exposure escalates.
- Employee Retention Tax Credit — We help businesses navigate ERTC claims, disputes, and IRS scrutiny surrounding pandemic-era credits.
- Trust Fund Recovery Defense — Personal liability for unpaid payroll taxes is a serious exposure. We build your defense and work to limit that risk.
CIVIL PENALTIES
- Civil Penalties (Main) — Civil tax penalties compound quickly. We pursue abatement and relief options to reduce the financial burden.
- Penalty Abatement — Not every penalty is final. We pursue abatement for failure-to-file, failure-to-pay, and accuracy-related penalties where the circumstances support it.
INTERNATIONAL TAX LAW
Resolve complicated international tax compliance issues with:
- IRS Streamlined Compliance Procedures
- Voluntary Disclosure Programs
- Delinquent International Information Return Submission
SPECIALTY TAX ISSUES
- Conservation Easements — Syndicated conservation easement disputes carry serious IRS scrutiny. We work to limit exposure through settlements, voluntary disclosure, and strategic negotiation.
- International Tax Issues — Cross-border tax obligations are easy to miss and costly to ignore. We help U.S. taxpayers abroad and foreign nationals with U.S. obligations come into compliance.
- Unfiled Taxes — Years of unfiled returns don’t have to define your financial future. We guide clients through voluntary disclosure and back into compliance.
When Our Atlanta Tax Resolution Lawyers Go to Work, the Results Speak for Themselves.
SAVED $290,973 Our client had not filed federal or Georgia income tax returns for 14 years due to severe depression and related hardship. We submitted a Voluntary Disclosure Request that limited the required filing period and waived late-filing penalties, saving $80,498 in Georgia taxes. A follow-up Penalty Abatement Request with the IRS produced an additional $210,475 in savings.
SAVED $99,131 Our client was assessed $99,851 in unpaid sales taxes tied to her ex-husband’s business. She had no involvement in that business but was listed as an officer without her knowledge. We filed a Georgia Offer in Compromise based on doubt as to liability for $720. The offer was accepted, saving our client $99,131.
SAVED $210,000 Our client, a self-employed individual, had accumulated federal income tax liability of $196,034 across tax years 2008 through 2019. We submitted an Offer in Compromise and settled that liability for $860. We also resolved a Georgia income tax liability of approximately $15,500 for $250, producing total savings of over $210,000.

What Our Clients Say About Wiggam Law
“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!” — Beth R., Tax Client
“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.” — C.C., Tax Client
“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!” — M.M., Tax Client
How Our Atlanta Tax Lawyers Work Your Case
1 — We Start With Your Situation No two tax problems are identical. Before we recommend anything, we take time to understand your goals, your financial reality, and the full scope of what you’re facing. Our first consultation is judgment-free and focused on finding options, not just cataloging problems. There is almost always an alternative to paying the full debt.
2 — We Build a Strategy Around Your Case Once we understand the details, we assess whether the government’s position is well-founded. If collection actions are pending, we move to halt them. We walk you through every available option in plain language and tell you what we would do if we were in your position. We do not recommend services that don’t add value to your situation.
3 — We Deal With the IRS Directly Our Atlanta tax lawyers handle all communication with the IRS and Georgia Department of Revenue on your behalf. We know how these agencies operate, how to negotiate within their systems, and how to move a case toward resolution without unnecessary delays. You don’t have to navigate the process yourself.
4 — We Set You Up to Stay Clear Once your case is resolved, we make sure you understand how to avoid future issues. If circumstances change and you need us again, we’re here. No judgment, no lecture, just practical guidance for what comes next.
