As a taxpayer, you have rights that the IRS must abide by in its dealings with you.

We will also prepare and file amended tax returns and correct any errors as a result of an incorrectly filed original tax return.

Once a wage garnishment is filed with an employer, the employer is required to collect a large percentage of each paycheck.
