The tax resolution industry for the most part has been turned over to sales people who have worked 0.there business verticals such as mortgage, real estate and credit relief programs.
When their industry changes because of economic reasons or changes due to the federal law, these companies and sales people are forced to find 0ther business verticals to work.

You can avoid many of these problems if you follow this practical common sense advice on choosing a tax relief company for IRS Problem help:
1. Check the Better Business Bureau report on the Company. If the company is not “A” rated, flee. Beware, many of these companies change names every couple of years.
2. Find out if there is a professional Tax Attorney or CPA on staff.
Scam companies will not have Tax Attorneys and CPA’s. Those professionals usually will not lend their names to scam artists.
Beware of companies that sub their work out to third party firms that are not connected with the company.
Many of these companies have backend tax firms that will actually do your work. Many problems come up when this happens because communications, notices and letters all get lost in the shuffle.
3. Check out how long the principles have been practicing tax or tax law. Most solid companies will find their principles have been practicing at least ten years or more.
4. Ask if the company guarantees their work.
If a company is guaranteeing their work, flee again. No one can guarantee IRS results. If they guarantee your money will be returned if they are not successful, that’s an0.there story.
5. Interview the person that may work your case. Ask about his or her credentials and IRS work experience. You should get a good gut feeling after speaking to the person that will work your case.
6. Skype the person face to face. Ask if the person has a video conferencing system. You will get a good feel with a face to face.

8. Many of these companies will have videos on their website so you can hear the actual professionals of the firm explained the tax relief process and how IRS will interact with you the taxpayer.
9. Carefully check out the retainer engagement to find out if there are any hidden fees. Most professional tax companies doing this type of work will give you a flat fee for working IRS problem help cases.
