Segal, Cohen & Landis, P.C.
Annapolis IRS Tax Attorney
Serving Annapolis from our Beverly Hills office. Most matters are handled entirely by phone and video.
Annapolis is a town built on federal paychecks, security clearances, and pass-through income - and the IRS knows it. From Naval Academy faculty and civilian DoD employees to State House lobbyists, charter captains on the Chesapeake, and the defense contractors clustered around Fort Meade and Annapolis Junction, residents here carry exactly the kind of W-2, 1099, and K-1 complexity that triggers IRS audits, CP2000 notices, and Maryland Comptroller wage liens. A federal tax lien or a clearance-threatening back-tax balance is not a problem you want to hand to a general practitioner. Segal, Cohen & Landis - based at 9100 Wilshire Blvd in Beverly Hills and representing IRS clients in all 50 states for over 33 years - resolves these controversies before they cost Annapolis professionals their clearance, their business, or their bank account. Call before the IRS or the Comptroller escalates from notice to enforcement.

Frequently Asked Questions — Annapolis IRS Tax Help
What IRS issues are most common for Annapolis state government and naval community?
Annapolis is Maryland's state capital and home to the US Naval Academy. State government employees face IRS issues with Maryland State Retirement and Pension System (MSRPS) distributions, deferred compensation, and legislative per diem. Naval Academy faculty and midshipmen support staff face military benefit and compensation reporting issues. Maryland's income tax (up to 5.75%) plus Anne Arundel County income tax create a multi-layer tax structure that coordinates with the IRS.
Does Maryland's income tax create additional audit risk for Annapolis taxpayers?
Yes. Maryland's Comptroller participates in federal-state data sharing — IRS audit results automatically trigger Maryland state assessments. Anne Arundel County also levies an income tax surcharge. Maryland is one of the more active states for income tax enforcement. State government employees and Naval Academy staff who receive complex benefits and compensation face both federal and state audit exposure. SCL handles federal IRS matters for Annapolis clients.
Can Segal, Cohen & Landis represent Annapolis and Maryland clients?
Yes. SCL serves Annapolis, Baltimore, and all Maryland clients remotely. We handle IRS audits, government employee pension issues, back taxes, FBAR, and all federal tax controversies.
How quickly can you stop a wage garnishment or bank levy?
In most cases, we can issue an IRS levy release or garnishment suspension within 24–72 hours of being retained, pending IRS processing. The first step is a free consultation to assess your situation.
What is the cost of a tax attorney consultation?
We offer a free initial consultation to evaluate your situation. Fee schedules vary by case type and complexity — we are transparent about fees before any engagement.
