Few phrases can spike your blood pressure faster than “You’re being audited.” Whether it’s a letter from the IRS or a phone call that catches you off guard, an audit can feel personal, stressful, and, let’s be honest, overwhelming. But here’s the good news: you don’t have to go through it alone.
With professional IRS audit representation in Baltimore, you gain a trusted advisor who can protect your rights, reduce your risk, and guide you through the process with clarity and confidence.
At Leonard J. Miller & Associates, we’ve spent decades helping individuals and businesses in Baltimore handle IRS audits professionally and proactively. Here’s what to expect when you work with a team that knows the audit process inside and out.
Understanding the IRS Audit Process
First, take a deep breath. Not every audit means something went wrong. The IRS selects returns for many reasons, including random sampling, mismatched data, or specific red flags in the return.
There are generally three types of IRS audits:
- Correspondence Audit – A simple request for additional documentation by mail.
- Office Audit – An in-person meeting at a local IRS office.
- Field Audit – A more in-depth visit conducted at your home or place of business.
Each of these requires a unique approach. The more complex the audit, the more valuable experienced representation becomes.
Why Professional Representation Matters
IRS agents are trained to ask detailed questions and review documentation closely. Without proper representation, even well-meaning answers can be misinterpreted. With IRS audit representation in Baltimore, you’re not just protected; you’re prepared.
