This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

- The company takes money from hardworking individuals under the false promise of helping them resolve their IRS taxes.
- They continue to call and harass clients when payments are missed, creating unnecessary stress and pressure.
- When clients request updates or information about their case, the company consistently fails to provide clear, transparent, or meaningful responses.
- Their replies are often dismissive or nonchalant, giving the impression that they are more interested in collecting fees than actually resolving tax issues.
- The company's actions do not genuinely help those in need; instead, their primary focus seems to be on how much money they can extract from clients.
- Despite being with this company for over four years, I have yet to receive any resolution to my IRS case.
- Over this period, they have collected more than $20,000 from me, yet my unpaid taxes remain unresolved, and my financial situation has worsened.
- This experience has left me feeling exploited and distrustful of their intentions and services.

Recommendation: Don't deal with them

They have done the same to me. They are soulless scumbags. I paid 11K, and all they did is make payment arrangements to IRS. I can do that. I fired them and they continued to make these contacts to IRS, illegally.

I hired Tax Rise in June of 2023, they claimed to be working on my behalf and claimed to be communicating with the IRS, the IRS never heard from them, I got a tax levy on my wages and a Lien on my property, while they sat back and collected my money to the tune of $14,000. I decided to deal directly with the IRS, they should have to pay me back every penny that they stole and I just want my money back for their fraudulent claims.
