What a great company to work with!
I COMPLETELY messed up and didn't do the due diligence I should have, and signed up with this company AFTER I had commited to working with another tax resolution service.
Their agent was kind enough to give me a refund and help me to understand that there ARE so many with "Tax" in their name.
This company should take pride in the integrity their agents demonstrated.
In these times of the mentality that some are trying to get over on someone else, it's refreshing to find a company that operates with honor and integrity.
Steve Podielsky was the agent and deserves to be commended.
There was no resolution after 2 1/2 years, I was told I should call the IRS and try to make a payment plan. That's what I thought I paid them to do. Meanwhile my interest and penalties grew and now I owe more. They never offered me an offer In Compromise, when I asked about it, they said I was not contracted to do so, they never said they only worked with the Federal and not my State. All along I thought they were trying to resolve my State.
I'm worse off now than when I hired them and paid them $9,500.00 to do absolutely nothing.

I have hired and payed for their services to help me with my New York tax issue. I could not for 3 months get a person on the phone to discuss my case, and now I open the mail and find my drivers license for New is Suspended for taxes. Before I hired and payed this company I explained they sent me a letter 5 months ago that they will suspend my license and I was assured they would take care of this. Now, no one calls back, they were paid and I have no update and my license is suspended !

We're happy to know that our nationwide representatives have done such a phenomenal job in assisting you with your tax matters. Thank you for this stellar review!
I would not recommend Tax Defense Network based on my experience. I hired them with the expectation that they had the expertise to resolve my tax issues, but instead I was left with an unresolved problem that ultimately cost me thousands of dollars.
Communication was inconsistent, updates were limited, and despite paying for professional assistance, I did not receive the results I was led to expect. What should have been a solution became a prolonged, frustrating process with significant financial consequences.
When you hire a tax resolution company, you are trusting them during an already stressful situation. Unfortunately, I felt unsupported throughout the process, and my tax issues remained unresolved while the financial impact continued to grow.
If you’re considering hiring Tax Defense Network, I strongly encourage you to thoroughly research your options, ask detailed questions about their process, and fully understand what services they will actually provide before signing a contract. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend their services.

Heather Izarry was kind, efficient, and was eager to help me. I was behind and she gave me time to catchup, and told me what was expected from me. AND helped me through phone calls and emails.
Everyone needs someone like her in their business!!

My husband and myself hired this company over 8 weeks ago, or so, we had to send for paperwork from SSD, and after receiving it we mailed ALL paperwork in, we were told they would mail it back, as I have no printer, well, they claimed we left out a firm, so I went and had it printed and filled it out again, and we have not heard nothing, I was moved to yet another person to handle it and she was supposed to call me yesterday, we we have not heard anything, the guy Nathen who originally signed us up, long behold his number is not in service, we were lied to, said they would be contacting IRS the week we signed up for help, well they did not contact IRS and now our bill is even higher, well will be going to the bank tomorrow morning to file Fraud, & try to get the 609 they’ve already taken out. I am totally upset, as we are POOR and can’t afford any of this let alone get scammed by Tax Defense as well, bad enough our wonderful government is scamming us! So we will be filing fraud against them in any way we can!! Totally unacceptable and disappointing to say the least! I do not recommend this company! Nothing but a run around!

Very good company to do business with. I was hesitant at first, but dealing with Pamela Simmons was a great experience. She was very efficient and proactive. Would use again if needed.

Pamela Simmons was extrememly helpful thoruhg the entire process. As you can imagine, having to address tax debt is highly stressful and complicated. Pamela shared her own experience and gave so much hope to me when we first talked. I knew that there would be a light at the end of all of this because of her. Also, I found it very helpful that she explained each detail and gave the reasoning behind Tax Defense Networks process and the IRS process. Her explanation and care with answering all of my questions was extremely valuable to helping me stay clear headed. I am so grateful for your services and for Pamela!
