After our client’s divorce, the IRS sued her in federal district court for tax debts that were entirely her ex-husband’s responsibility. The IRS claimed they could take property she received in the divorce, even though she had no role in creating the tax problem. They filed the lawsuit trying to foreclose on her property and tie her to more than a million dollars of tax debt that wasn’t hers.

DeWitt Law fought back. We carefully built a strong defense that highlighted her innocence and pushed back against the IRS’s aggressive tactics. Thanks to our work, we negotiated a quick and favorable settlement—our client paid a small fraction of what the IRS originally demanded, and the IRS agreed to fully release all liens against her property and businesses.

This outcome shows why having the right legal team matters. At DeWitt Law, we don’t let the IRS bully our clients. We defend their rights, protect what matters most, and deliver results when the stakes are high.
