The result was $38,000 IRS tax forgiveness. One point off because the follow thru was significantly led by me. BUT, no matter how you slice it, I could HAVE NEVER achieved this outcome without Opitima Tax Relief. Just call monthly to check in and submit all documents! I' thrilled.

They definitely saved my wages from being garnished, and set up a settlement that worked for me! It was a long process and we went through several agents to get there, but in the end it was worth it. Optima tax relief did all the negotiations with the irs which really took the stress off of us so we could focus on life again.

I was literally sick to my stomach with stress over my taxes. I owed about $42k because of an investment loss. I won’t bore you with the details but needless to say, I was in trouble and headed toward an even worse situation since I had been putting this off and the IRS gave me a deadline. That’s when I finally decided to do something about it and called Optima Tax along with a couple other places. One place made me feel like I had walked onto a used car lot and I was being sold an old junker. The other place made it seem like I was bothering them and they were going to do me a favor or something by taking my case. Optima treated me with friendly respect and like they would partner with me to fix my problem. And that’s exactly what they did. I was very participatory along the way and did everything I could on my end to get them what they needed, when they needed it. If I asked a question, I’d get a straight answer. If I didn’t understand something, they’d explain it. There were definitely some bumps along the road but no matter what, Optima handled it. The end result is that I’m in an installment agreement based on what I can afford and, some of the debt is going to fall off before I have to pay it. So overall, I’m satisfied because I’m not worried anymore and I’ll have saved about $18k once all is said and done.

I am very independent and do not have an account of discretionary money to just use for anything! I needed help in cyphering through the IRS web that I was caught in. After hiring another company who did nothing, I followed up on a commercial I kept hearing about Optima. From that initial contact with Optima, who I hired because of the excellent customer service, all the way to the completion of my case, it has been such a pleasant, seamless experience. I didn’t have the money but the investment made with Optima running the helm of my tax challenge, it was well worth it. They settled my case, less than what I expected and the follow up and follow through was awesome. They kept me informed of every step taken! I highly recommend Optima Tax Relief! You will get optimal relief from your tax chains holding you from your success!

Optima's bill to me was half of a tax attorney! I didnt pay my taxes for years and tried a local tax attorney before Optima, medical issues... My previous tax attorney had me paying an outragious bill in back taxes, I thought that was crazy. So I called Optima and they interviewed me and investigated my situation. There was alot of back and forth with the IRS, but eventiually everything they reduced my tax bill to a really, really reasonable amount. My local tax attorney charged me more upfront than Optima did at the end of thier work, and my tax bill was reduceded to where I can breath again.

I thought I was in an impossible situation with the IRS owing them a lot of money, due to several mishaps, with no possible way to pay them, even a fraction, for the foreseeable future. Knowing that interest and penalties were accumulating daily only added to the stress and desperation. Optima patiently reviewed my issues, did their analysis and represented me very effectively, so that the offer in compromise was accepted. They were able to resolve the situation in a very cost effective way for me. Also, the peace of mind I feel now that the IRS tax lien has been removed is priceless! If you have a problem with the IRS: (1) don't try to resolve it alone; (2) choose Optima as your champion!!

Optima Tax Relief helped us out tremendously after we lost our business in 2015. Within 2 months, we went from small business owners doing work for a nationwide trucking company as a vendor for over 10 years, to my husband working for the corporation that took over and kicked us to the curb. We had taxes due that we had no idea how to pay since my husband is now making 1/4 of what we were bringing in as business owners. Optima took the time and helped us when we had no idea what to do. They helped get a huge burden off of our shoulders. Everyone we ever dealt with was always nice and explained everything and very helpful. Thank you!!

Optima was true to their word and it was a life changing situation for me that they fixed. I had been working with the IRS for about a year trying to get on a payment plan to no avail. They continued to deny me stating my household income was too high. I new that wasn't correct as my status was permanently disabled. My income was 1/3rd of what it used to be when I was working that created the tax debt. Feeling low one night watching tv i came across a Optima commercial. I called them the next day and within a month I had my payment plan that was 1/4 th of what the IRS wanted. They where true to their word and I am very satisfied with the results and would recommend them to anyone having tax problems.

I was in a really big jamb and needless to say I was in need of some assistance. I was facing quite a bit of trouble with the IRS for some past due taxes owed and couldn't afford to pay what they were telling me I needed to pay and when I had to do it by.
If you owe money to the IRS, Optima is definitely a team of experts you want on your side. They were able to prevent them from wage garnishments and further actions beyond that point as well. I believe I'd probably be sitting in a room by myself and it wouldn't be one at home if it weren't for them.
They are super friendly, efficient and without a doubt know what they are doing. They updated me every step of the way. If there was movement, I heard about it. I thought it was initially a little expensive for the service, but of course I didn't know what else to do. I shopped around and they were the lowest by far anyways. I took the plunge and as I type this out, I'm happy to let you know it's not in an 8x8. lol
These guys truly are great at what they do. One thing that I'd like to point out is that not one person made me feel bad or poorly about my situation and just simply assured me that I was not only in capable hands, but assured me that I was in the right hands. Thanks a million OTR. You guys are awesome.

I owed a lot of money to the IRS and felt like I had no way out. Like over $20,000 in debt! I was scared and didn't know who to turn to. I found Optima Tax online and called them. I spoke with a women who was extremely nice and told me about how they could help me reduce my debt or possibly make it disappear altogether. I was a bit nervous at first even though I read good reviews online I wasn't sure if they could help. Optima Tax exceeded my expectations. They cleared my debt completely! I was so happy with the service I received from them. I would recommend them to anyone who is in need of resolving their debt!

Skeptical at first, then completely satisfied.
I had long-term and very complicated tax issues and the IRS was coming after me to collect. After many years of back and forth dialogue and off and on arrangements, they finally refused to work with me and said they were about to use their power to make life difficult. I had heard about Optima and decided I should give them a try. From the very start, they were professional, patient, and thorough. I initially thought the retainer was a bit high and wondered if I was being taken for a ride. Turns out it was a bargain. They cleaned up my tax records, filed my back taxes, got me out of collections and worked on the best possible resolution I could expect for my situation. Then they reviewed everything with me personally and said they would be there if I needed them in the future. I felt like I was a rich guy with a high-powered accounting firm at my disposal. Thanks Optima.

I used Optima Tax Relief to resolve some unpaid back tax issues. They were very helpful and made what initially seemed like a very complex problem easy to deal with. Their team of tax professionals was with me every step of the way and always promptly answered any questions along the way. Not only did they get me caught up on my taxes, they also successfully negotiated with the IRS to reach a settlement on my unpaid taxes which saved me tens of thousands of dollars. They were upfront about all fees and were absolutely worth every penny. I would highly recommend using them if you find yourself in a similar situation.

I went from IRS-(I'm really scared) to there is hope.
I tried resolving my issue with the IRS alone. I did everything that was asked of me and then the IRS just got bigger and meaner. They wanted blood. I heard the commercial on KBLX and I decided that I didn't have a choice, I had to get some professional help to deal with the IRS, at this point I had nothing to lose. I took the first step and contacted Optima Tax Relief and boy what a relief it was. I have not heard anything from the IRS since I hired this company. Optima Tax Relief has done everything that they said they would do, They kept me informed, told me exactly what forms they needed from me and when. I believe I dealt with 4 or 5 different people while going through this process, each and every employee that I spoke with was very understanding, polite courteous and timely. I was kept very informed from the beginning to the end. I will definitely recommend them to everyone that I can, but I will also let people know each case is different and may get different results.
I think the only thing that Optima Tax Relief can do to improve is to advertise more and while working with us scared individuals let us know that at each faze of the process we will be speaking with someone different. Overall this was the most trustworthy company that I have ever dealt with. My case ended successfully AAA+

I heard of Optima tax relief on the radio. At the time I was somewhere around $40,000 in debt to the IRS. Optima tax from the beginning made me feel that everything was going to be okay. whenever there was an issue or they had A question they didn't hesitate to call me. and whenever I had a question they always promptly called me back if not that day the very next business day. I cannot say enough good things about Optima tax I'm now in compliance with the IRS and my balance is zero. oh by the way that $40,000 that the IRS said I owed, Optima tax got it down too $1,080.
I would recommend to family and friends

When I received a notice from the IRS my heart almost stopped beating. All the years of working hard for my family was now at risk. When our economy took a bad turn it affected my income and impacted my ability to pay my taxes. I was bombarded by law firms emails and flyers. I didn’t know who to trust. I heard about Optima Tax Relief so I read all I could on them. I finally decided to call them and it was the best decision I ever made. They explained the whole process step by step with no surprises and no hidden costs. I even had access to a real person that was involved in my case - Someone with answers. They gave me peace of mind knowing I had a whole team on my side going up against the IRS. I have my house and my bank account was never touched by the IRS. This is one company that remembers what customer service is all about - they know that there are good people that have fallen on hard times and they know how to deal with the IRS and their policies. Thank You Optima Tax Relief!

Optima Tax-Amazing Service
Optima was amazing. Once I started they took the ball and ran with it. Never did I need to contact them due to lack of response. I owed a large amount to the IRS and was losing sleep over it. After the first phone call I felt very relieved. They took over and handled everything with the IRS. Their requests for supporting information were clear and easy to provide. They were successful in getting me an "offer in Compromise" of approximately 5 of what I owed. They also continued to follow up after the offer was reached to insure that I properly completed my payment. They explained everything and kept me up-to-date throughout the process. I could not be more pleased and impressed.

Optima was one of several firms I contacted to address what, for me, was a substantial and insurmountable tax debt with the IRS. I didn't have to think too hard in choosing which company to hire as Optima's representatives were extremely knowledgeable, professional, and forthcoming about a streamlined process they utilize to guide their clients through the debt resolution process. I always felt I was in good hands and able to speak with a representative any time I had a question and, ultimately, my debt was settled for less than 3 percent of what I owed. Optima's fees were also considerably lower than their major competitors. I hope I never need the services of a tax lawyer again but if I do, I will contact Optima.

The fine people at Optima Tax Relief helped alleviate my fear of the IRS and threatening letters I had been receiving. Each one was more threatening than the previous one, and I realized that I needed help. I recalled hearing Optima Tax Relief advertised on TV and radio by Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, and the late Alan Thicke, so I called them.
From the beginning consultation with Gabriel, I knew that I had made the right choice in contacting this fine organization of tax professionals. I moved from the initial consultation to working closely with Nereida and Brandon, who never tired of my questions and concerns. Taina has graciously followed up since we reached a resolution and has kept in touch.
It is important to know that dealing with the IRS takes time and patience. Optima took time to work out a resolution to the satisfaction of all parties. They encouraged me at every step in the process, assuring me that even though the process is time-consuming, we would reach a satisfactory arrangement. Remember, never deal with the IRS alone; it is vital to be represented by ultimate professionals who have your best interest at heart.
Optima Tax Relief states that one of their core values starts with "Providing excellence for every client, every time. No exceptions. No excuses." Optima definitely exhibited this core value, along with others. I suggest that anyone needing professional help with tax resolutions contact this fine organization. You'll be glad you did! I know I am, I and shall be forever grateful. I consider them friends for life.

Completely professional and efficient service!
Optima Tax Relief did an amazing job taking care of my Tax crisis. I had been going back and forth with the IRS for years and right from the start the professionals at Optima Tax Relief assessed my situation and put me completely at ease. They explained the entire process in detail so I could easily understand what all stages would look like. Everyone that handled my case was always accessible for any questions I had via phone or email. They also designated a point person to have a periodic "touch base" with me so I would be kept in the loop at all stages. They were extremely efficient and transparent explaining possible outcomes. Because we started the process late in the year...........it took a bit longer then expected(the government offices shut we down during the holidays). The final outcome was OPTIMA TAX RELIEF saved me tens of THOUSANDS of dollars and continued back and forth with the IRS. I was completely lost and overwhelmed but OPTIMA TAX RELIEF stepped in and took control of the entire situation. Excellent experience from beginning to end I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I had an such an awesome experience with Optima Tax Relief that I would like to share with everyone. I had a 22,000.00 IRS debt and was looking at a wage garnishment as well as a hold on my bank accounts. I called Optima and the minute someone answered the phone they made me feel that everything was going to be OK. They sent me the paperwork i needed and we began our process together to reduce my 22,000.00 debt to the IRS to 100.00. There never was any stress and the whole process took less than one year. I am now debt free to the IRS. Great Company and Very professional staff. Great experience.

I was initially skeptical, and dodged Optima Tax Relief. I asked questions over and over, and was leery about giving them my credit card information over the phone. After, Optima Tax Relief asked me to come visit their office and meet with them, I then felt at ease.
I signed up with Optima Tax Relief over the phoneand I did not regret it. They informed clearly of the possible outcome for a delinquent $10,000 amount I owed to IRS.
In about 5-6 months time, Optima Tax Relief, through Power Of Attorney gathered all required tax papers from me, communicated with the IRS on my behalf, brought all my tax paperwork up to date, and at the end, they constructed a Settlement with the IRS for $50.00 because of my hardship.
I highly recommend Optima Tax Relief to anyone who is in the same position that I found myself in.......YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.

The staff at Optima Tax Relief were amazing. Each team member assigned to my case displayed the highest level of professionalism which put my mind at ease during the process. They always took to the time to contact with additional update information concerning my case.
Dealing with the IRS can be very stressful but team at Optima Tax Relief really allow me to have a peace of mind. I am recovering from a heart attack and under doctor's care right now. The team working my case instructed me to focus on getting better and they would focus on taking care of my tax issues. And they did a superb job! I never expected the outcome to be this good. Without posted the dollar amount concerning my case, I will stay they were able to reduce my owed amount by 99.9%. To say that I am happy would be a understatement. I've recommend Optima Tax to 9 friends and family members who experiencing the same benefits. The smartest move I made concerning my tax problems was turning it over to Optima Tax Relief.

I can only praise Optima Tax Relief LLC for the help they gave me to resolve an issue of back taxes owed to the IRS!
The process that I went through was extremely fair in many ways! The time that it took to reach an offer in compromise (Fresh Start) was fair! The actual offer in compromise was more than fair! The fee that I was required to pay Optima Tax was more than fair! I went from owing the IRS $13,000+ to reaching an IRS accepted offer of $100!
The company should be very proud of each and every employee that they have working for them! Each person that I came in contact with, through the different departments, was very helpful in getting through each phase of the process! Each person was very personable and made you feel that you were not alone in getting the help you needed!
I would not hesitate to recommend Optima Tax LLC to anyone that may be seeking a resolution of IRS tax debt! If you need this kind of help, don't hesitate to call them right away! You won't be sorry!

Working with Optima Tax Relief was a great experience from the very first call until my issue was resolved. I have had annoying tax debt that I could not get paid and was accumulating penalties which made the debt grow. After talking with Optima Tax Relief my debt was cleared and a settlement was made which I know wouldn't have been possible without Optima Tax. Relief. .I recommend everyone that is dealing with a IRS issue to contact them to help, they set your expectations as far as how long it would take and it takes away the stresses you have because it is being taken care of.. I give them 100% satisfaction.

I was at a crossroads as to trying to figure out how to resolve an IRS tax debt. I just by chance happen to be driving in my car and heard an advertisement on the radio for tax relief service through Optima Tax Relief. I took the chance and made the call. Let's face it, I had nothing to lose, and everything to gain. I spoke with a representative, who took the time to explain the professional services offered by Optima Tax Relief.
This person was very easy to talk to, very professional, and just an all-around nice person. But that could just have been a way to convince me to agree to take on their services. But in actuality, this person sincerely cared about my situation, and was wanting to help. So I followed to steps to get started, and the rest is history.
After about 9 months of negotiations by the tax attorneys with Optima Tax Relief and the IRS, my situation drastically changed. I settled my tax debt over a year ago, and I am Federal Tax Debt free! I am so very grateful to the level of professionalism of all of the Optima Tax Relief team. I hope to one day have the convenient opportunity to stop the offices of Optima Tax Relief, to personally thank them for how they have help me.
If anyone has heard their advertisements, and have wondered about their services, or has hesitated in calling, make the call. I am a true witness to what this firm can sincerely do in helping people to resolve IRS tax debts.

First, I would like to thank everyone at Optima Tax Relief. I owed about $17,000 to the IRS and they began to garnish my wages. I really didn't know what to do. As I drove to work, I thought about my dilemma and who I could talk to about my situation. That's when it happened. A commercial on the radio began to play and it seemed like a godsend. Shocked, I immediately pulled off the freeway so I can write down this phone number before the commercial was over. I quickly called and from the very beginning Optima Tax Relief associates were very courteous and professional. Throughout the entire procedure, I never felt uninformed. They called me when needed, emailed me and had a convenient way for me to keep track of everything online. To put it plainly, I was simply amazed at the speed and professionalism that they showed. Within a few days, they had convinced the IRS to remove the levy from my pay and I felt like a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders. They then set up a payment plan that was within my means to afford. Over all, I am truly grateful for all the effort they put into my case and here, I can give you ten stars.

After four years of personal, unsuccessful, and frustrating negotiations with the IRS, I turned to Optima Tax Relief for my representation. As one of the many individuals with IRS problems, I had heard Optima Tax Relief commercial advertisements and was skeptical. Thankfully, selecting Optima Tax Relief resulted as one of the best decisions of my adult life.
After four years of my unsuccessful IRS discussions, Optima resolved my IRS issue in less than one year. My problem with the IRS has been resolved with an Offer in Comprise at a savings to me of $23,495.
While one year may sound like a long time, it's significantly shorter than the four previous years I had hopelessly spent dealing with the IRS. And, I did not have any inter action with the IRS – Optima Tax Relief did it all. They kept me up to date with the negotiations from beginning to the final resolution.
If you have an IRS problem that you cannot resolve, I would emphatically refer Optima Tax Relief as your representative. They do what they say they will do. They did for me- I no longer have an IRS problem!

Optima Tax Relief literally provided a much needed life line for me. I was receiving multiple letters from the IRS saying I owed thousands of dollars; I called the folks at Optima Tax and they were very understanding as they have helped thousands of people, meaning my case was handled by very competent, experienced and friendly staff; from the initial administrative details to me being assigned my own personal case worker, I knew I had made the right decision. With minimum fees (compared to the enormous bill I had received from the IRS) and a clear upfront explanation as to what would be done, I was amazingly comfortable every step of the way. They negotiated my settlement to a very happy outcome....I strongly recommend them to family, friends and coworkers. Give Optima Tax Relief a call and you will be completely satisfied:-)

I had some past Federal tax situations that I needed help with. I had heard about Optima Tax Relief on the Mark Levin radio broadcast. I gave them a call and was immediately talking with a gentleman that was very business like, but also I felt that he cared about making sure I felt at ease, and that I was in good hands. He asked me a series of questions for a basic check to make sure they could help me. After it was determined Optima could help with my situations the process started.
During the time it took to go through the many steps to insure that every “T” was crossed and “i” dotted I talked with several different people at Optima that handled different parts of my situations. Dealing with the IRS on behalf of anyone like myself that needs help can not be easy, but these people did an outstanding, professional job. Every time a question came to my mind or I wanted to check on the status of one of the steps the process was going through the people at Optima were very quick to return my phone call, or email, but the majority of the time I was immediately put in touch with my case worker. At times when my case worker wasn't available at the time the person I was talking with was extremely helpful and took care of my inquiries, if they could, or insure my case worker would get back to me by the next day, which they always did.
Everyone I talked with at Optima was always very pleasant, knowledgeable, helpful, and put me at ease during that very trying time. During the whole process it took for Optima to work with me, and the IRS to bring to a finalized solution, I really felt that they totally cared about getting the best outcome for me, and that they were diligently working towards that end. When I got the word from my case worker on what the IRS agreed to I was overjoyed, and I felt that a huge burden was lifted from off my shoulders thanks to these hard working people. Optima did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend them to anyone that is dealing with IRS problems.
