Wipe Out Tax Debt

Baltimore Bankruptcy Lawyer for Tax Debt

Although it not widely known, bankruptcy can wipe out some tax debts. Both federal and state income taxes can be addressed in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy if specific conditions are met.

At the Law Office of David W. Cohen, in Baltimore, Maryland, I dig deep with clients to make sure that any possible debts that are eligible for discharge, including back taxes, are considered as part of their bankruptcy proceedings.

When you work with me, attorney David W. Cohen, you will never feel as though you are being rushed out the door because your time is up — I will listen to your concerns, ask the right questions, and spend whatever time is required to set you at ease and to provide the best possible solutions.

Eliminating Tax Debt Through Bankruptcy

With over 25 years of experience under my belt, one of the skills I have honed is knowing what questions to ask and how to ask them. It is important for me to not only understand the details of your debt, but also to have a clear understanding of what your goals are and what is important to you.

If you have tax debt, I'll ask you a number of questions to determine whether that debt is eligible to be wiped out (discharged) as part of your bankruptcy. For tax debts, Chapter 7 bankruptcy is generally the better option, but your debt must meet certain conditions in order to qualify for discharge. By learning how old the debt is, whether you have filed a tax return for the debt and other basic information, I will be able to determine what options are available to you.
