Why we built this together

The IRS sends over 200 million notices every year. Most people pay too much, wait too long, or never discover programs that could eliminate what they owe. Romeo knows exactly what every IRS situation means and what to do about it. Dmitry builds the technology that makes that expertise accessible to everyone. Together they're making professional IRS resolution available to people who need it.

What we handle

Every type of IRS problem. One team that knows the system.

Romeo spent years inside the IRS reviewing returns, conducting audits, and learning how the agency thinks. There's no IRS situation he hasn't seen from both sides.

01

Unfiled Returns

Haven't filed in years? You're not alone — and it's fixable. The IRS requires returns to be filed even if you can't pay, and the penalties for not filing are far worse than for not paying. Romeo handles catch-up filing for individuals and businesses going back as many years as needed, regardless of how complicated the situation is.

02

Offer in Compromise

An Offer in Compromise lets qualifying taxpayers settle their IRS debt for less than the full amount owed. The IRS rejects most OIC applications — but Romeo knows exactly what the IRS looks for and how to build a compelling case. If you qualify, this can be the most powerful tool available for resolving tax debt permanently.

03

Penalty Abatement

The IRS can waive penalties for taxpayers who qualify for first-time abatement or can demonstrate reasonable cause. Most people never ask — and leave thousands of dollars on the table. Romeo reviews every case for abatement opportunities and knows exactly how to present the argument the IRS will accept.

04

Back Taxes & Collections

Owe money you can't pay in full? There are more options than most people know — installment agreements, Currently Not Collectible status, partial pay agreements, and more. Romeo negotiates directly with the IRS to find the arrangement that fits your situation and protects your assets from levies and liens.

05

IRS Audits & Appeals

Received an audit notice? Romeo conducted audits as an IRS Auditor — he knows the exact playbook, what triggers scrutiny, what auditors are actually looking for, and how to prepare the strongest possible response. He represents clients through correspondence audits, field audits, IRS Appeals, and Tax Court.

06

IRS Notices & Letters

Got a letter from the IRS? Romeo spent years on the other side writing those letters. He knows exactly what each one means, what the IRS is actually asking for, and the right strategy to respond — whether that's a simple reply, a formal protest, or requesting a Collection Due Process hearing.

What people say about Romeo's work

"

Romeo helped me with a tax audit with the IRS. He worked for the IRS and his advice was spot on. I finished a normally 2-hour audit in 30 minutes with no charge to my return. I highly recommend him.

Romeo is a pleasure to do business with. His business acumen and approachability is beyond reproach. He will go above and beyond to find an answer to all your questions. I could not recommend him more.

The transcript verification found two errors in my CP2000 before I paid anything. Saved me over $3,000. The response letter it drafted was better than what I'd expected from a $500 enrolled agent consultation.
