Semper tax/Sergio is an extremely well organized tax professional. Fast responses and great attention to detail. They took care of a rather complex back dated tax return for me in record time. I definitely recommend this company and look forward to continue using them year after year. Thank you Sergio

The individual who I spoke with was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Although I did not end up using their services due to my restricted budget, I received extremely valuable advice. I fully intend to use their services in the future if I have further tax issues and would highly recommend them to others.

I am from New York, and have often traveled for work. I used to own a company that shut down years ago. I thought I was in the clear, until I was hit by the IRS that completely wiped out my account, all my money was gone. I called the IRS and turns out I owed $287,000 for an audit I never got notice, and civil penalties on payroll tax . The situation seemed unreal with the abusive practices the IRS takes. However, I feel like the luckiest guy on earth to have come across Sergio with Semper Tax. He initially took on my case and he got my money back into my account. He was honest about the process, and we filed an offer in compromise and ultimately settled alll to balance to the IRS for a total payment of $3750 and the IRS forgave the rest!!! I have Sergio and his Semper Team to thank for giving me peace of mind, and to give me my life!!!

I didn't know how to do taxes let alone file them. Even getting the Turbo Tax I kept messing up. As a business owner I needed someone to guidance in this field. Semper Tax Relief is the best. From beginning to end they know what to do. Sergio truly mastered his field when it comes to IRS Tax. Even though they advertise Tax Preparations is easy with softwares such as Turbo Tax you still need an expert to handle that area. I'm so glad I met Sergio, now Semper Tax Relief does my taxes every single time. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Semper Tax Relief.
