CALIFORNIA TAX DEBT RESOLUTION
If your California business is drowning in back taxes and debt, we can help ease your financial stress and offer you a fresh start. We take the time to appreciate and listen to your tax situation, and devise the best course of action to protect your property and finances.
MAKE YOUR TAX DEBT MORE MANAGEABLE
We negotiate with California Tax Collection Agencies to help reduce your overall tax debt and make it more manageable for you to pay.
LEGAL REPRESENTATION
We offer legal representation to protect your rights and ensure that you are treated fairly by the California Tax Collection Agencies.
OFFER IN COMPROMISE
We help you to take advantage of the offer in compromise program, which allows taxpayers to settle their tax debt for less than the full amount owed.
Overview
To think that state tax debt is any less important than federal tax debt is to be mistaken. If you do business or live in California, state taxes take a big chunk of your pay. The Golden State does a fantastic job drawing residents into its tax net of 8.84% (businesses) and 13.3% (individuals). Factor in the state’s notoriously aggressive collection and enforcement activities, and it’s a perfect storm.
California’s tax system is intricate too. Instead of adopting federal law wholesale like how other states do, CA legislators pick and choose. Even the state’s tax dispute resolution systems and tax agencies are unusual. And we don’t want to mention its tax statute of limitations, which are downright scary.
These cruel practices in dealing with California collections inspired us to choose this profession. You don’t have to fight California tax collection agencies alone. From our professional consultation to resolution, our team at Brotman Law will work to get you the debt relief you deserve.

We have personally seen how difficult the state can be when they believe they are owed money.
While many people have no idea of how impossible they are to deal with — until they are going through this process — we understand the seriousness of this issue and therefore, do everything we can to intervene.
The state will attempt to use a lot of very aggressive tactics in order to steer taxpayers into paying more than they can afford, so our focus is on evening the playing field by introducing ways to preserve a reasonable quality of life for our clients who owe state taxes.
Our focus is to create a real avenue of relief for taxpayers – something that is lacking at the state level.

STILL HAVE QUESTIONS?
If you want to deal with collection agencies directly to negotiate your debts, you are definitely within your rights to do so. However, in some tax situations, it is advisable to hire a California Tax attorney to help you. Remember, the process is made more difficult because of how tax collections are set up in California. The playing field is not tilted in your favor, hence the need for an expert.
Although you have the right to discuss your tax issues directly with the State Collection Agencies, there are several areas that an attorney has expertise on that you don’t. Also, don’t forget that contacting a knowledgeable tax attorney can help you avoid tax issues in the first place.
Yes. There are circumstances in which taxes might be discharged in bankruptcy. That said, you must have an expert tax attorney analyze your situation to determine whether your case qualifies.
Once your submission is approved, and the plan of action is established, you will be back on the path to compliance. Our team will monitor your situation to ensure that you retain good status with the State and will work with you to avoid reoccurring problems.
