Arena & Associates Marketing Approach for an IRS Tax Problem:

There are a lot of good tax resolution companies out there.  These two links will help you tell who’s who:

• What should happen when I talk to any tax resolution company?
• What should not happen when I talk to any tax resolution company?

You should not hire IRS past due tax help unless you think there is a good reason.  The real first question, after a tax lien is filed, is not whom to hire, but “IF” you should hire anyone to help if you owe back taxes to the IRS.

Let’s inject some common sense into the tax problem if you are looking for IRS help.  Read the link above, it will help you decide “IF” you actually need to hire IRS back tax help.  Have an IRS emergency caused by an IRS bank levy or seizure?  Take the time to read both of these links.  They are focused on your best interests, not a tax resolution company’s.  

• Arena & Associates wants you to hire them if you owe back taxes to the IRS.  However, do not hire the first tax resolution company you call or calls you about your IRS tax problem.  Make them compete for you business with at least one other company who meets the hiring criteria for irs back tax help.
• When an IRS tax lien (IRS Notice of Federal Tax Lien, IRS Form 668(y)) is filed with the county recorder, it becomes public record.  Then Arena & Associates may collect this information and contact businesses and individuals with IRS tax lien filings.

Instead, take control of this IRS tax problem on your terms.  Here’s how: (3 steps, 10 minutes)

• STEP 1:  Before you have a discussion with Arena & Associates, read Google & BBB reviews & complaints. 
• STEP 2:  When you are ready, call Arena & Associates if you are OK with their reviews & complaints and get the name of the person who will represent you and check them out. 
• STEP 3:  Re-Contact Arena & Associates if you are satisfied with Steps 1 & 2.  Then get a Second Opinion on How to handle your IRS Tax Debt.  (That’s a hint!)
• All the steps for the Arena & Associates Review are completed below.

It is valid to be concerned about the IRS’ actions, and to take action yourself, but a knee jerk reaction could cause greater IRS problems down the road.  When the IRS goes into enforced collection mode, it’s worthwhile to take a measured approach to fix the tax problem.

STEP 1:  Before you have a discussion with Arena & Associates Read Google & BBB Reviews & Complaints:

After doing a little homework on Google, Arena & Associates’ address:

• 4120 Saint Lucia St, Boulder, CO 80301
• Arena & Associates phone numbers:  (866) 208-8837, (303) 847-4038

Arena & Associates Better Business Bureau records look like this:

• In business since 2002
• Accredited 2007
• 3 Complaints. 
• Arena & Associates BBB review.

• When using the BBB to research a tax relief company, it is probably best to use the BBB as a “de-selector” rather than a reason to hire a tax resolution company.  The BBB solicits companies to become a member, so it is relatively easy to remain in good standing and keep an “A” letter grade.  The nature of the company is better seen by how many complaints they have accumulated over the last 3 years; which is the standard BBB reporting period.  A good rule of thumb is no more than one complaint per year, or three complaints total.  Size and age of a tax resolution company are irrelevant.  It really boils down to how they treated their clients during the reporting period.  So Arena & Associates should have three or less complaints total. 
• There are plenty of tax resolution companies who meet this standard, so don’t settle for less.  If you’re having trouble finding a tax resolution company with 3 complaints or less, I’m happy to help.  I can be reached at irsbacktaxhelp@gmail.com.

Arena & Associates Reviews & Complaints from Google:

• Arena & Associates Reviews
• Arena & Associates Complaints

STEP 2:  If you are happy with Step 1:  Reviews & Complaints,  call Arena & Associates.

In the first call, tell Arena & Associates you want some general information about the company and the name of the person who will be representing you before you talk to them and then you will return their call.   

• Once you have the name of the person who will represent you, visit the Colorado State Bar and make sure the attorney is in good standing.

STEP 3:  Re-Contact Arena & Associates if you are satisfied with Steps 1 & 2.  Then get a Second Opinion on How to handle your IRS Tax Debt.  (That’s a hint!)

Knowledge is power, so the second opinion is important.  Overall, if you are thinking of hiring Arena & Associates, listen to them and then see what the second opinion says about your tax problems. Of course, we would like to be that second opinion, but as long as you take the time to do a little homework as listed in the first link above, you’ll probably be fine.  Click “About irs back tax help” to learn about us or read irs back tax help Testimonials to see how we treat people.

If you would like irs back tax help to be your first or second opinion, I can be reached at irsbacktaxhelp@gmail.com.  I do not pressure people in an already stressful situation.
