You Don’t Have to Face the IRS Alone

Our experienced team quickly diagnoses the issue, prepares the necessary documentation, and works toward the best possible outcome—so you can get back to focusing on life without the stress of tax problems.

We understand the anxiety an IRS letter can cause. That’s why our approach is grounded in clarity and compassion. We explain what the notice means, outline your options, and guide you step by step through the resolution.

Pricing starts with a base estimate and is confirmed after reviewing your records. As additional information becomes available or complexity arises, any scope or fee adjustments will be clearly communicated and approved before proceeding. 

Additional fees may apply based on complexity, including: 

  • High transaction volume or multiple wallets/exchanges  
  • Complex activity (DeFi, NFTs, staking, derivatives, etc.)  
  • Multi-year cleanup or prior-year corrections  
  • Wallet-by-wallet transition (if required)  
  • Incomplete or inconsistent records  
  • For Full Filing Support: complex tax situations (multi-state, international, additional forms)  

The 2025 Form 1099-DA reports gross proceeds only, not cost basis. Accurate reporting requires wallet-level reconciliation and expert review. 

Without proper reconciliation: 

  • Gains/losses may be overstated or understated  
  • IRS mismatches are more likely  
  • Audit and notice risk increases
