“Working with Tax Champions has been a real relief. After experiencing the weight of our tax debt for several years we were finally able to get everything worked out with their help. From the beginning I could tell we were in good hands. They were extremely knowledgeable and did what they said were going to do which matters most!”

Trish

“I was feeling overwhelmed and scared due to tax debt. I called Tax Champions and was immediately put to ease by all their knowledge. Their friendliness was more than appreciated…any embarrassment I had over my debt with the IRS disappeared after my first phone call. All my questions and concerns were addressed in a timely manner and everything that was promised to me while moving forward with them was fulfilled. I will only use tax Champions in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for tax relief!”

Jennifer

“Dealing with this company is straightforward and easy. Every one of my phone calls got answered when I had questions. I knew exactly how much everything cost on the first phone call and never paid a penny more. They got my penalties removed which I was hoping for and also got my overall tax debt reduced that I was happily surprised about. I will never go anywhere else for my tax needs.”

James R.

“I had not filed my taxes in 5 years and spent a lot of time online looking for a company that could help. After talking to several companies who felt like they would say anything to get me to hire them and finding Tax Champions and doing some research on their firm, I decided to call and see what they could do.

I spoke to a tax consultant who took the time to explain everything that they would do to fix my taxes and work to lower what I owed and he answered all of my questions and assured me that my tax problem was not the end of the world. They filed my back taxes and negotiated an affordable settlement and were even able to get rid of the penalties! I would recommend Tax Champions to anyone with a tax problem.”

Edward Knips

“Tax Champions were extremely knowledgeable, professional, and most importantly trustworthy! I had no idea where to begin and my tax issue was becoming so overwhelming. From my first conversation to the end, they made me feel safe and did everything they said they were going to do and more. I have referred them to many friends in my situation and all have said the same.”

SV

“Very nice , easy going people. Words NOT typically words you associate with taxes issues or returns. My taxes went back several years and were fairly complicated. Team was very patient and understanding and help me get back on track with the IRS.”

Edna M.

“What an AWESOME experience! Finally, someone that helps answer questions about taxes owed to the IRS that is actually knows what they are talking about and CARES! I called the toll free number and was transferred to an associate who was patient with my questions, told me immediately how to handle the situation and said to feel free to call back after I had completed what he said to do, if I had any more questions. Called back again today and was again met with professionalism and knowledge. GREAT company! GREAT people! Thank you, Tax Champions.”

Jennifer V.

“I felt compelled to express my gratitude and appreciation for this company in a time in our country when it's hard to trust any company. I talked to several tax resolution companies before finding Tax Champions. I've had an issue with the IRS for 4 years and to be honest, I was scared and didn't know what to do about it. I was completely discouraged after being told what needed to be done in my case by other companies and how much it would cost, all with no guarantees that they could help me.

It was so hard to spend most of the remainder of my savings account on a company that was just telling me whatever I wanted to hear to get my business. When I talked to Justin at Tax Champions, I felt confident that Mr. Wotman was more than competent enough to handle my issue and at a little more than half of what I was quoted by another company. The professionalism and compassion with which the office staff handled my (sometimes emotional) concerns and how quickly my issue was resolved was astonishing.

This company will be the ONLY company I ever turn to for accounting and tax needs I encounter from now on. I'm so fortunate to have found Tax Champions in a time when I needed them most.”

Claudia P.

“My ex-husband owed $36,000 dollars to the IRS in back taxes and, because we were married at the time I was held responsible for half, even though I never worked when we were married. I applied for the innocent spouse and IRS denied it. Meanwhile my ex made an offer in compromise which they accepted leaving me stuck with the balance.

I am a single mom with 3 children and at the time was unemployed. I used the Google search engine and started calling everyone that it pulled up. Every single Tax relief agency promised they would help me but wanted their fees up front even though I explained to them my financial situation. They offered to help me if I gave them 1/2 down, which I didn't have, and make 2-3 payments until fees were collected and with no guarantees that I would prevail.

I finally found Tax Champions and spoke to Justin Shields. He had compassion for me and immediately spoke to Walter Wotman who promised to work on my behalf and only collect his fees if he were successful. Additionally, his company didn't charge even half of what the other agencies were asking. He and Richard Stelter put many hours of hard work and didn't not take no for an answer. I was granted the Innocent Spouse and all my refunds for the years during which this was in dispute, plus interest!

I strongly recommend Tax Champions. Thank you Walter and his complete staff!”

Shannon G.

“I have never wrote a review, but the experience that I just had with this company (Tax Champions), I feel that it is well deserved. When I called I spoke with a young man by the name of Justin. Justin and I had spoke about my situation and the fact that there are so many scam artist out there, that are just looking to take your hard earned money promising to reduce you tax debt, yet they do not produce results that they promise.

Justin was very professional looking out for my best interest, not in trying to scam me out of my money to do what I basically can do for myself. I appreciate professionalism and honesty. Even though they are not able to help me at this time, the information that I retained from my call was very helpful. Justin truly went above and beyond to help me in anyway necessary, even though they are not helping in my case.

Long story short I would recommend this company if your are having problems with your taxes or the IRS. Justin thanks again for all your help. I wish you and your company much more success!”

Sunhee Park

“I have been working with Tax Champions for a few years, and my stuff was a Mess. They helped me to Clean and clear up all of my issues. They guided me, acted on, and encouraged me all the way through the process of my back taxes, notices, and I am still working with them. I highly recommend this company, they are so professional, gifted, Friendly, caring and I just love everyone there!”

Deandre A

“In need of help with my tax situation tax Champions was actually the third firm I called off Google search. I believe 3 times a charm not only did Justin Shields from Tax Champions put my mind at ease Justin was first concerned and focused of my well being but how they can help fix my situation. The discussion of money for services provided had not come up till the end and I was the one who brought it up Justin was a real professional and that deserves an A+ grade.

Justin also took his time explaining all in detail to make sure I understood all that was being said and said if I had any other questions in the future I can call him anytime and I appreciate that. Thank you Justin Shields/Tax Champions for all your help you are at the top of my list for any future tax help.”

Lynn T.

“No one appreciates owing money, especially when it concerns the IRS. It is even further agonizing when one is NOT GUILTY of such. Where does one turn for help? I mean REALLY GOOD HELP! Fortunately, I was directed to The Tax Champions. With the expert advice and procedures of Walter Woltman, Richard Stelter and their staff, the tax lien placed on our home was ultimately removed.

In addition, all money withheld from retirement funds, while not received at this writing, will be refunded as well. More on this story. My wife and I are retired and in our 70’s. Like most, much of our asset value is in our home. In addition to the aforementioned, our home was in eminent domain, in process of condemnation for the expansion of a major highway. We have been in the process of building a new home expecting to use the equity in our now “condemned” property. That equity was in jeopardy because of the lien on me. Well, you can imagine the pressure!

While communicating with all members of The Tax Champions, each time being assured it would turn out all right, it was difficult to contend with. Had it not been for The Tax Champions conveying such confidence and their ability to not only understand the process but, I might add, understand the IRS and how to work with them, it would have been devastating. If you are looking for a compassionate, understanding and extremely knowledgeable organization concerning tax situations, assuredly you should look to Tax Champions!”

R.G.

“My experience with Tax Champions was incredible! The nicest, caring people you could ever work with. Richard Stelter was so helpful in any situation I needed help on, and was right there when needed. I would recommend this company to anyone any day!”
