Highland Tax Group is a Game Changer I am extremely grateful for the service received from Highland Tax Group when facing a demanding situation with the IRS where I was unsuccessful on my own. Mike Wallen and Megan Scot were significant in navigating a complex and stressful tax issue. From the first contact, Mike Wallen was professional, courteous, and flawlessly knowledgeable. He always took the time to understand the specific situation and explained everything in clear terms. His guidance and reassurance throughout the process provided peace of mind. Dealing with the IRS can be overwhelming, but Mike handled it with unparalleled ability and efficiency. He worked diligently to reach a favorable agreement, negotiating a sustainable settlement, saving me over six figures and providing a fresh start. The proactive communication was impressive, as the firm kept me informed and addressed concerns promptly. Thanks to Mike and Megan's hard work and dedication, the tax issues were resolved successfully, and I can move forward without the worry of dealing with the IRS. They are an exceptional firm, and I highly recommend them to anyone needing professional help with their tax matters. read more

I found Mike Wallen through one of his existing clients. His client spoke highly of him and I was excited to get started on repairing the financial ruin that had set in due to the tax liability I was facing. Mike was professional and courteous and always responded to my needs. When I had a question he was more than willing to advise me on the next steps I needed to take regarding the tax liability. Before I hired Mike with Highland Tax Group the IRS wanted a payment plan of over $500 monthly. After reviewing my financial situation Mike worked hard with me and the IRS to get me the lowest monthly payment plan available! I am currently paying $52 monthly. We are now considering filing for an offer in compromise. However, before we do Mike has advised me on how to improve my financial livelihood and still fall within the allowable financial categories the IRS sets forth. I will continue on my payment plan until my situation improves and I am confident Mike will steer me in the right direction to handle my tax liability. Doug, Buena Park, CA read more

When Mike Wallen took over the handling of my tax issues, I had been mired in major IRS difficulties for more than a decade as a result of bookkeeper failure to make my business tax payments. A competing tax resolution firm had been completely ineffective while trying to help me, despite charging an exorbitant fee. Mike took over, sorted through my voluminous records, and got immediately to work on my behalf. As a direct result of his expertise and industry, I recently made my last installment payment on an incredibly favorable resolution he reached for me with the IRS. For the first time in almost twenty years my tax affairs are in order and I sleep soundly at night. His fee was quite reasonable, he communicated with me constantly, and all my questions were answered in a patient and understandable way; I felt like he was my tax champion. To anyone needing help with serious tax problems, don't waste time or money looking elsewhere: call Mike Wallen at Highland Tax Group without delay. You'll sleep better immediately.

Mike Wallen is a star. After seeing all the glowing reviews about him on Yelp, I contacted him about a potential IRS issue I was facing last fall. Turns out it not his firm's thing, but instead of blowing me off he came up with a pro who could help, and followed up to make sure I was taken care of. Today, I hit him up...during the height of tax season, mind you...about doing my taxes because of said IRS situation. Again, turns out it's not something they do in my situation, but I had to ask...just in case, He got back to me almost immediately, this time with two pros who could help. I've had so many so-called professionals completely blow me off, so his actions merit a shoutout. Please don't take advantage of his kindness and bombard him with unrelated questions! :) But do thoroughly read through the info on his website and if it rings true, definitely reach out to this extra-mile professional. read more

Mike Wallen with Highland Tax Group helped me challenge amounts I owed for two tax years. I wasn't sure if that was even an option before I spoke with Mike, and after several attempts to reach the IRS by phone myself (which is impossible, the number provided on the notices only sent me to a message with no option to talk to the IRS), I reached out to Highland Tax. Not only did the amounts I owed for two years get reduced after working with Mike to send in proof of interest paid on my mortgage, but he obtained extensions on my behalf to get me more time to send the IRS the information as I was having a difficult time getting a hold of the mortgage company. He took care of the issue right before Thanksgiving to ensure the IRS deadline was not missed. Mike is very knowledgeable about tax issues and I appreciated his help greatly. read more

"Is there any IRS matter too challenging for Highland Tax Group?" One might ask. I am here to answer that question with a resounding NO! My circumstances were unique: after years of audits, added interest and payment plans for thousands of dollars, I made the decision to work with Mike Wallen and Megan Scott of Highland Tax Group in Denver. I do not like financial reports, tax inquiries and statements. After a decade struggling with them, I submitted all these issues to the expertise of Mike Wallen, Enrolled Agent, and my woes were handled in a professional, courteous and caring manner. I have already recommended Highland Tax Group and will continue to do so without hesitation. I thank God for professional tax experts such as Mike and Megan at Highland. J. G. read more

Poor tax reporting landed me in an IRS audit. I was introduced to Mike Wallen and the Highland Tax Group through my CPA hired to help me through the recovery. I was impressed by Mike Wallen from our initial meeting. He was honest and direct about the services his firm could provide together with his fees and what he expected from his clients. He has never wavered. To date, Mike Wallen has been successful assisting me with the IRS and counseling me through this challenge.

His professionalism and personal attention to his clients joined with keeping to his word on every level is not only refreshing is it reassuring. Carrie F. read more

Mike and Ron were great to work with and took a very professional and aggressive approach to solving my tax issue with the IRS. Their knowledge and advice was second to none. They took an active interest and role in getting the situation resolved in a timely manner and positive outcome. We worked with another firm in the past that is very "active" in advertising on local radio about their services and promoting their past success stories. We felt as if they we were just another case file with them. At Highland Tax Group, they made us feel as if they truly cared about our personal situation and did everything they could to help us. I would definitely recommend them to anyone that is dealing with a tax situation with the IRS. read more
