Back in December, we discussed garnishments in our blog. As you may recall, garnishments are legal orders which allow a creditor to forcibly seize assets from a debtor. Or, in legal terminology, they allow a plaintiff to forcibly seize assets from a defendant. In the vast majority of cases, garnishments involve seizing wages directly from […]
We’ve all seen the TV commercials: “If you owe Uncle Same more than $10,000, we can settle your debt for pennies on the dollar.” Me? I’m personally amazed at how those folks can make those statements when they know absolutely nothing about me or my finances. Zero, in fact. Sounds too good to be true. […]
When we use the terms “above-the-line” and “below-the-line,” what does the “line” refer to? The answer is simple: the line is the demarcation between your adjusted gross income and taxable income. Your adjusted gross income (or AGI) is your gross income less any adjustments (or deductions) you claim. Your AGI is the figure you use […]
Tax debt can occur for any number of reasons. Certain types of workers, for instance, are more likely to slip into tax debt than others. Those who work as independent contractors are a good example. That’s because they commonly calculate their tax liability incorrectly and so fall into tax debt. Independent contractors are those who […]
Cost basis (or tax basis) is a foundational concept in taxation. The reason behind this is very simple. Basis affects a taxpayer’s gain and therefore affects a person’s overall tax burden. The main purpose of cost basis is fairly easy to understand. Cost basis is basically a reflection of a person’s investment in a given […]
Form 1099 is one of the most common forms in our tax and accounting systems, both of which focus on keeping track of money. In fact, all of the forms, schedules, rules and other aspects of accounting and tax further this goal. If a taxpayer doesn’t file the correct tax form, then the IRS won’t […]
Just as there are certain cases more commonly encountered than others, certain traits are more valuable among tax attorneys than others. To be a successful tax attorney, a person needs a solid educational foundation, good mentors, and adequate practical training. But really successful tax attorneys need a few more things. Because of the stakes involved, […]
I had a wonderful experience with Mr. Callahan during my initial phone call. He fully understood my issues and provided me with helpful information on how to proceed with my tax issue. I am very appreciative of his time and expertise!

Mackay, you are a godsend. Thank you dearly for taking the time to go through in great detail options for our situation. You were patient, thorough and extremely helpful even after you knew we were unable at this time to pay for services. I wish other companies would follow your level of customer service.
I was in despair for years and now finally I have hope.
God bless,
Tiffanie
“I had a BIG problem with the IRS and wasn’t making any progress with them, even with my accountant’s help. Then I heard about Mackay, Caswell & Callahan. I’m here to tell you that ALL the good things about those tax attorneys are true. Joe Callahan got a $30,000 tax bill reduced to $200! Thanks Joe, I still can’t believe you pulled that off! Christmas came early this year!”

“Joe Callahan helped me out of a big mess. I also went to several other “tax specialists” and got no good answers. Very professional and efficient. I would highly recommend him for complex tax issues. I could have saved a lot of time and money had I used his office earlier on.”

“Mr. Callahan was able to resolve my tax issue quickly. He was up to speed on all recent tax code changes and successfully resolved my issue based on this information. His retainer was very reasonable and I am highly satisfied with the outcome of his hard work.”
