We are the only bankruptcy firm in Margate focused on resolving tax claims using the bankruptcy process. Our clients hire us to ensure that they eliminate or otherwise reduce their tax claim(s) to the greatest extent possible. There are many bankruptcy lawyers in Margate, but we are the only Margate Bankruptcy Tax Lawyers law firm headed by tax lawyers. We do what matters most – focus on eliminating tax debt in bankruptcy – plain and simple! While most other Bankruptcy Tax Lawyers law firms focus on bankruptcy and deal with the tax claims as an after-thought, we don’t. We deal with the IRS and state taxing agencies in every one of our tax bankruptcy cases.
A tax-motivated bankruptcy case is an effective weapon not only for eliminating IRS tax debt, but it can likewise discharge or eliminate state tax debt, medical bills, credit card bills, and most other debt.
A “tax motivated” bankruptcy filing is one which includes tax debt along with related interest and penalties. The tax debt can be any type of tax - income, sales, payroll, employment, or excise taxes. Our tax bankruptcy attorneys analyze every tax claim and examine its attributes to strategically eliminate or reduce the tax debt along with all other debt.
When it comes to filing a tax-motivated bankruptcy case, “timing is everything.” So often, we see instances where the bankruptcy case was filed months, weeks or even days prematurely, and consequently, the client later discovers that they still owe substantial tax debt which could have been eliminated had they timed the bankruptcy case filing correctly. That won’t happen with us.
Our lead tax attorney, Brian Phillips served in the United States Department of Justice as a Trial Attorney in the Tax Division and as an Assistant United States Attorney in the Middle District of Florida. During this time Brian handled complex civil tax and criminal matters and served as the lead Asset Forfeiture attorney in the Orlando office of the United States Attorney where he prosecuted a large number of white collar criminal cases.
Mr. Phillips is currently an Adjunct Professor of Law at the University of Florida LLM – Taxation Program where he teaches Procedures in Tax Fraud Cases.
Most other Bankruptcy Tax Lawyers are part of a “cottage industry” of tax relief agencies whose primarily offering is an “Offer-in-Compromise.” This “administrative option takes forever to get processed, usually has a low acceptance rate, provides the government with a “road map” to your assets and acts as a “tolling event,” substantially delaying the period before you can eliminate your tax claims in bankruptcy. We are different. We don’t offer you limited administrative options – we present the full spectrum of solutions – we fight for a real fresh start, one that addresses all of your debt.
Our tax practice group consists of tax and bankruptcy attorneys, former taxing agency personnel, tactically trained Certified Public Accountants and IRS Enrolled Agents, veteran bankruptcy paralegals, and an extensive team of tax and bankruptcy operations specialists and administrative support staff.

"In the case of income taxes, once the tax claim was incurred (based on the later of the due date or the extended due date of the tax return) more than three (3) years before the bankruptcy filing date and assessed more than 240 days beforehand, there is a strong likelihood that the tax is dischargeable in either a Chapter 7, 13 or 11 bankruptcy filing. However, this assumes that you filed a tax return (before the IRS has filed one for you) and if you filed late, more than two (2) years has passed since it was filed. In addition, these time periods may be impacted by a variety of events such as a prior bankruptcy, Offer-In-Compromise, an IRS CDP hearing (and related appeal), amended returns filings, audit adjustments and a few other events.
Note that even where a tax claim may not be fully dischargeable in Chapter 7, a Chapter 13 bankruptcy proceeding may allow you to eliminate the tax claim, or at the very least, satisfy it without the payment of penalties and interest.
In most cases, the type of tax involved is “income” taxes, but when a business is involved, there may be payroll, employment, sales, property, and excise taxes as well, all with a different set of rules that relate to the timing of events and transactions.
In each case we file, we prepare a detailed Tax Dischargeability Analysis report which is crucial to a determination regarding the timing and type of bankruptcy."
