ST former pharmaceutical rep St Louis, MO

I just got off the phone with my tax attorney Minji and the owner Josh of Anthem Tax Services and I am here to tell you they are the real deal. I had allowed my taxes to go for 6 years and was so afraid of what the IRS would do to me. My taxes that I owed was well into 6 figures and the only option that I had was an installment program. Two tax advisors prior to Anthem told me that I would have to pay thousands on a monthly installment program and they would probably put a lien on my bank account. I was terrified and desperate I told one tax advisor I was going to use a tax relief company and she told me that they were all scams. Luckily I didn't listen to her and I am happy to say Minji reduced my taxes by about 2/3 and I have an affordable installment agreement ...less than what I could ever imagine. Minji and Anthem are miracle workers. I am forever grateful to them. They really care about their customers and I am highly recommending them to anyone who has tax issues. Please call them they will allow you to afford your life!!!!

I am not sure this site will allow me to redact my previous review, but current circumstances dictate I should do so. I must strongly express how expeditiously the Anthem team worked to alleviate any concerns I may have had. Every team member has really stepped up to make sure we receive the best customer service possible. David has been especially understanding and has contacted me several times with updates and has worked extremely hard to make sure I understand the entire process and the steps required to get there. I would not hesitate to recommend this awesome Anthem team to address any tax concerns. Again, my previous review was written without me possessing critical information about our case, resulting in negative comments that I now understand were circumstantial, not related to the company or this awesome team. I truly appreciate their personal touch, which is very hard to find, which increases my trust in their abilities.

What a day after getting screwed by Optima Tax that just took my $500.00 and wanted another $5,900 dollars which I sure didn’t have just lying around. I happen to see an ad for Anthem Tax Services so after thinking about it I called and a guy named Joshua answered. Right away I knew this phone call was going to a lot different than my last experience. We talked about my Tax issue and he took the time to explain everything. I learned more in the phone call we had then whole time I had to deal with the other place all I got from Optima was a run around. Joshua sent me over some paperwork to fill out and the best part is this is all being done for a faction of the price the other company was trying to charge me. I just want to tell anyone who is having a problem with the IRS call Anthem you will feel much better when you hire these guys. Again Thanks Anthem and especially Joshua for the help and taking a load off my back I know My Family is going to be okay.

It’s very overwhelming when the company you’ve dedicated 18 years to and planned to retire from closes several departments. Now, without a job and owing several thousand dollars, it was easier to place the IRS mail in a basket and basically pretending not to see it, let alone open it. With all the companies offering such a service, I feel blessed Anthem was my first choice. I just called from the internet, no referral. David was my first contact. He made this calm, structured, and smooth for me. Even when I finally broke out in tears. My next contact was Shannon . AGAIN, impressed! Both were nonjudgmental, kind, understanding and with both I even was able to laugh some and laughter is how I get through hard times. Through the process they were the only two contacts I had. I was a person not a number being passed around. Their communication skills were on point behind the scenes. You do not have to repeat your uncomfortable story over and over. I would highly recommend Anthem to my family and friends, I feel as if I made two new friends over the phone in a difficult time. Anthem, David and Shannon are huge assets to your company. Thank you.

I had over 10k in back taxes from almost 10 years prior. There is no way I could pay the full amount. The Irs levied my bank account and sent out wage garnishment notices. I talked to anthem and they got me in non-collectible. Josh assured me that if they didn’t get the levy released he would refund me anthems fee. They did release the levy on time but some one screwed up at the bank or irs and the funds were withdrawn from my account. As Anthem promised, they refunded my fee. They did everything right on their end and it still didn’t work out right. I respect their integrity and standing by their guarantee. I highly recommend working with Josh, he’s a great guy and very dedicated to helping people, that is very evident.

I don't typically write reviews about my experiences with companies, but after working with Anthem I felt it was truly warranted. The overall experience and treatment was amazing. They truly cared in a way that you rarely come by anymore. They resolved my IRS debt, kept me informed and were always available for any questions or concerns I had. As someone who was in a bad spot and knew nothing about taxes the people at Anthem changed the game and exceeded all of my expectations. I will continue using them to avoid future issues and for anyone else who may be in a bad spot like I was I would highly recommend this business.

I was referred to Anthem Tax Services by a co-worker after I received a wage garnishment notice from the IRS and my human resources payroll department. After a divorce I was dealing with several past years of tax burden, the compounding interest and penalties were overtaking my ability to manage my finances and I was falling behind on tax payments and quickly headed towards possible personal bankruptcy. The representative at Anthem was very professional, I worked with the same person throughout the entire process. He was able to answer all questions, and I did not feel any sales pressure. I was provided with options, I took my time to make a decision and even called another tax service for comparison. Anthem was able to reduce/consolidate and re-negotiate my tax debt. I am now able to pay my monthly bills and expect to have my tax debt repaid in the next few months.

I hired anthem tax services because of my 18,000 tax debt with the IRS and a debt of $7000 to the State. I was never getting anywhere on my payment plan, so I finally decided to find another way of resolving my problem.. You always hear horror stories of scammy tax companies and I was worried myself. Jake was great in guiding me through the whole process and understanding of my financial situation, which is a relief because most other places I called, were just pushing me to hire them. Jake was so patient and spent so much time with me that I felt comfortable and secure with my choice to hire him. After 45 days, Jake was able to lower my tax debt to $500 to the IRS and $100 to the State. I finally have the fresh start I needed. If you're hesitant to call, don't be. I'm happy I did. Thank you Jake & anthem tax team.

I am a tax preparer for a living myself but have no knowledge in tax law. I got myself into an issue where i owed a decent amount to the IRS and needed professional help. My friend referred me to Anthem Tax Services as a solution. Long story short, i hired them, they reviewed my situation thoroughly and stated they can help me.. a month into the case they found out that i had some property that was left to me by my late mother which i forgot about completely. Unfortunately this hindered Anthem Tax services ability to help me, which i understood, because i did not disclose this to them in the beginning of the case. They set me up on an affordable payment plan as a courtesy and without having to ask...they refunded me %100 of my money ! i assumed by default that they were not going to do that. I am a professional myself and when people pay you for your TIME.. it costs money. Anthem Tax Services still sent me back everything i paid them and that completely blew me away, and is also the reason i am writing this review. They are stand up people and have earned my respect. I recommend them to anyone who wants honest help.

As if leaving his wife and children for another woman wasn't bad enough, my ex-husband left me with a HUGE Tax Bill. I was freaking out and didn't know where to turn. I spoke to a few firms and honestly just got bad vibes from every aggressive telemarketer I talked to. I reached out to Anthem after seeing their commercial on TV. They took the time, explained how to settle my debt and how to fill out the tax forms (which are impossible to understand). They settled my $34,000 debt for $640.00. I will never go anywhere else for any tax related issues because Anthem actually informs and educates their clients.

Their electronic system is super intuitive—I uploaded my documents in no time—and they immediately got to work. They even caught some deductions I had overlooked. The team was responsive and upbeat, making what usually is a dreadful experience feel like a breeze. I'm telling you, if you haven't tried their services yet, you are seriously missing out. Hands down, the best tax experience I've ever had!

Handled the state tax authority with a very expert touch. They wanted to actually shutter my business for unpaid sales and use tax. Being that the state is super bored, they focused on me so hard and went through my books so harshly. This wasn't a fun process... anthem fortunately stopped them mid examination and got them under control and made them respect the law. They were doing things that were highly unethical to me and borderline illegal. Anthem made them respect me, and i kept my business.

Overall they satisfied my families tax needs. I haven't used a lawfirm/attorney for much of anything in my life so this was a true first experience. I found them to be thoughtful, punctual and honest. The most important thing for me is even if its a bad thing or bad news, i want to know upfront ... they were like that. One part of the case took a negative turn, due to my previous accountant. Fortunately they were able to amend his terrible work, and place the blame on him (he is since in jail). So they squared it up with the government... and were good now.

Considered the best for a reason... Took 6 month's to get my case completed (which is fast im told). It was a straightforward payment plan negotiation and a closed audit they had to fight on my behalf. They chose the best of both worlds for resolution, and that saved me the most money. I had no clue the depth of these peoples work... helped me save many thousands in the process.

I enlisted Anthem Tax Services with respect with my IRS due of about $50k. Wasn't sure what to expect as a resolution. My case dragged out for over two years only because IRS takes forever to move the process along. But in the end, I was astonished to receive news that the entire balance due of $50 K was deemed as uncollectible. The entire balance was wiped clean. I cannot thank the pros at ATS enough. They did an outstanding job and in particular I would like thank Victor Giron who stood with me every step of the way. Fantastic work by Victor and the ATS team.

Service Representatives were professional ,courteous, and patient.

According to the IRS agent, there was no outstanding balance due to my income. Although I may have been entitled to a tax refund for some of the years in question, the late penalties took that away.
