Segal, Cohen & Landis, P.C.
Minneapolis IRS Tax Attorney
Serving Minneapolis from our Beverly Hills office. Most matters are handled entirely by phone and video.
When the Minnesota Department of Revenue and the IRS both come knocking, Minneapolis taxpayers face a two-front war that most local CPAs aren't equipped to fight - Minnesota's residency audits alone can reclassify a "former" resident and assess years of back tax on income earned long after they thought they'd left the state. Segal, Cohen & Landis represents Minneapolis individuals, medical-device executives, and closely held businesses against IRS audits, liens, levies, wage garnishments, and parallel Minnesota DOR collection actions. Operating from its Beverly Hills headquarters, the firm has spent over 33 years resolving federal tax controversies in all 50 states, and its IRS practice - examinations, appeals, Offers in Compromise, and Tax Court litigation - is nationwide by design. If you've received an IRS notice, a CP504 final levy warning, or a Minnesota DOR residency questionnaire, call before the assessment becomes a lien on your Hennepin County property.

Frequently Asked Questions — Minneapolis IRS Tax Help
Does SCL handle international tax compliance for Minneapolis's Somali-American community?
Yes. U.S. persons with Somali bank accounts, foreign real estate, or remittance-related financial interests have FBAR and reporting obligations. SCL handles voluntary disclosure and compliance for Minneapolis clients with Somali and other East African financial ties.
I work in Minneapolis financial services and have deferred compensation from prior years. What are the IRS issues?
Deferred compensation under Section 409A has strict requirements — failure to comply can result in immediate income inclusion plus a 20% penalty. SCL advises Minneapolis financial services professionals on 409A compliance and handles IRS examination of deferred compensation arrangements.
Can SCL help with IRS audits for Minneapolis medical practice owners?
Yes. Medical practice owners with complex business structures, large retirement plan contributions, and mixed personal/business asset use are high-audit-risk. SCL handles IRS examination of medical practice returns and advises on compliance for Minneapolis healthcare business owners.
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.
