Tax Attorney and Tax Resolution Services

Encino, CA (Vocus) June 25, 2010

In this struggling economy, the IRS has made no secret that it intends to aggressively pursue payment of back taxes. Taxpayers who have recently received a tax collection notice; been threatened by the IRS with a tax lien, levy, or seizure; or had an installment agreement denied or terminated, need not panic. However, they need to respond and get expert IRS tax relief quickly.

According to tax resolution expert Michael Rozbruch, while the IRS states that “many of these letters can be dealt with simply and painlessly,” the IRS can also levy a taxpayer’s wages, assets, savings and checking accounts unless the taxpayer takes prompt action.

“Having tax problems is a big issue, but there is a solution to every problem,” said Rozbruch, founder and CEO of Tax Resolution Services, Co. (TRS), the only national certified tax resolution firm in the country. “Our expert team of tax attorneys, CPAs, and Certified Tax Resolution Specialists are well versed in the legal tools that can delay or halt intrusive IRS collection tactics and are skilled at working out payment installment agreements, proving hardship or inability to pay, establishing a ‘currently not collectible’ status for an account, or negotiating a reduced-amount Offer in Compromise tax settlement.”

If there already is an IRS levy or lien on a taxpayer’s accounts or assets, TRS can file an appeal, temporarily forestalling further IRS action and setting the stage for resolution. The sooner taxpayers make the move to get professional and expert tax relief, the closer they will be to getting back their lives—and peace of mind.

“My Offer in Compromise was accepted, from 6,000 to ,500. Yes, re-read those numbers,” said Monica M,. a TRS tax relief client from Whittier, CA. “I can now begin my life over and… move forward without this heavy weight on my shoulders.”

Tax Resolution Services, Co. is dedicated to providing affordable solutions to businesses and individuals alike who find themselves in trouble with the IRS. Their expert team of tax attorneys, CPAs, and Certified Tax Resolution Specialists has a success rate of 90% – second to none in the industry – and an Offer in Compromise Settlement Rate of .11 on the dollar.

Traffic Logix Radar Speed Sign

Spring Valley, NY (PRWEB) May 12, 2010

At Fletcher Allen Health Care’s Medical Center Campus in Burlington, Vermont, physicians, nurses, and staff work daily to heal patients. At this nationally recognized medical center that serves Vermont and northern New York, the safety of pedestrians and drivers is also of primary concern.

Fletcher Allen is in the midst of a large construction project at their Medical Center Campus. The entrance to the construction site is near a dangerous curve, with visibility impaired for approaching cars. Traffic control was needed in this area to calm traffic and protect motorists and pedestrians.

Jack Conry, the Director of Security at Fletcher Allen, made the decision to purchase two radar signs for the roadways approaching the Medical Center Campus construction site. He has seen radar signs used effectively to control traffic in several locations on public roadways. Thinking these signs would be effective in slowing traffic and helping people reach the facility safely, he began surfing the web in search of a well designed sign.

After researching several alternatives, Mr. Conry chose the Traffic Logix radar speed signs equipped with solar power. In addition to being “green” the solar panel eliminated the need to run electrical power to the signs, so that installation was much quicker and easier. The signs also were highly visible from a distance and in poor lighting conditions, an important feature for the area.

The first sign was installed on Beaumont Drive, a heavily traveled road to the south of the Medical Center Campus that brings in about seventy percent of the organization’s traffic. The second sign was installed on Mary Fletcher Drive, located on the north side of campus. The sign was installed about 100 yards from the crosswalk that connects a staff parking lot to a staff entrance. The radar signs help to slow traffic in both locations.

“The radar signs are great,” commented Mr. Conry. “I’ve stood near the signs and watched speeds reduce once the driver reads the signs and realizes how fast they are driving.”

The radar signs alert motorists to their speeds, causing them to slow down and drive more carefully. Programmed to flash when motorists exceed the speed you choose, the signs are an excellent way to control traffic.

Traffic Logix solutions have been installed at several other medical facilities in the Northeast, including Washington Adventist Hospital in Maryland. At Adventist Hospital, administrators were looking to address speeding issues on the hospital property.

William Hentosh, the Chief of Security and Director of Emergency Preparedness at Adventist, commented, “We put the (Traffic Logix) speed humps on our main access road where patients and staff were crossing to get to other medical buildings. It has been quite effective in lowering speeds.”

While clinical staff at these hospitals work to save lives every day, support staff work to provide a safe environment for all patients, visitors, and staff. Traffic Logix solutions help ensure that everyone arrives and departs safely each day.

Washington, DC (PRWEB) December 12, 2007

The American Security Project (ASP) this week announced that Senator Chuck Hagel (R-NE) will join its bipartisan Board of Directors.

Senator Hagel, a two term Senator from Nebraska, joins an accomplished group of national security leaders, including fellow Vietnam veterans Senator John Kerry (D-MA), General Anthony Zinni (USMC, Ret.) and former Bush administration official Richard Armitage, who are working together to build consensus around a new strategy to enhance American security and improve U.S.-foreign relations around the world.

The second ranking Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and a member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, Hagel is known for his tough-minded independence and experience on national security.

“Senator Hagel’s record speaks for itself,” said Senator Gary Hart, the former Colorado Senator and ASP’s President and Chairman. “His willingness to question assumptions and his courage to speak difficult truths are qualities that are needed to end the paralysis that dominates the discussion of national security issues today. He has been an eloquent advocate for the use of all the instruments of American power and we enthusiastically welcome him to the board.”

Senator Hagel, who announced this fall that he will leave the Senate at the end of his current term, recently told the Council on Foreign Relations that among the most important lessons of the Iraq conflict is that the U.S. requires “a strengthening of alliances and relationships that we have never known before.” He also stressed that it is time to move toward “consensus governance in foreign policy.”

“The world faces challenges and opportunities today that carry with it implications well beyond this moment in time. The United States must employ comprehensive strategies that use all of its tools of influence within its foreign policy arsenal to build a 21st century frame of reference to deal with these challenges. Initiatives such as the American Security Project are relevant and important in helping provide the dialogue and knowledge that will successfully prepare our country for the future,” Hagel said.

The American Security Project (ASP) is a non-profit, bipartisan public policy research and education initiative dedicated to fostering knowledge and understanding of a range of national security and foreign policy issues. It is organized around the belief that honest public discussion of national security requires an informed citizenry–one that understands the dangers and opportunities of the twenty-first century and the spectrum of available responses. ASP was formed to help Americans–from opinion leaders to the general public–understand how national security issues relate directly to them, and to explain challenges and threats in a way that spurs constructive action.

Jane Moritz

Westport, CT (PRWEB) October 25, 2007

How can one save money on a corporate gift program but still send gifts that will be appreciated? When is the best time to send gifts to clients and employees? What is important when looking for a gift vendor? To answer these questions Jane Moritz, owner of Challah Connection, the online leader of kosher gift baskets, and expert on corporate gift giving, has released a detailed, step-by-step guide for company executives designing these types of programs. The release of the guide is just in time for the holiday season, the most popular gift-giving time, and Moritz hopes that it will provide guidance to those who need it.

“Executives are overwhelmed these days and planning a corporate gift program can be a huge undertaking. The goal of our guide is to streamline and bring organization to this very important, yet difficult chore,” says Moritz.

Kosher Gifts Recommended

An interesting point of the article is Moritz’s advocating of kosher food gifts. Perhaps she has a point. “Hands down, food gifts are the most appropriate holiday gifts,” says Moritz. In addition, “Today’s world is full of diversity in diet. While some people eat kosher food for religious reasons, many follow kosher diets because it is high-quality, healthy food. Plenty of people would be surprised to learn that the majority of people buying kosher foods are not Jewish. When you select kosher, you are showing good taste as well as consideration for our diverse population. Importantly, kosher foods do not look any different from non-kosher food. You will not be offending those who do not want kosher food, but your thoughtfulness will be appreciated by those that prefer or require it. Kosher is a win/win choice.”

Moritz’s article, “Six Simple Steps to Corporate Gift Success” is in the format of a step-by-step guide and lays out the gift-giving process in a simple, clear manner which company executives can easily follow. She also addresses the use of company logo branded gifts vs. non-branded, and more.

Moritz’s one last piece of advice: “Corporate gifts are a hefty expense and they reflect on you and your company. Take the time to do it right.”

Roll-Out Trash Can

Rochester, MN (PRWEB) September 29, 2007

BuyOnlineNow.com, an international office supply and office furniture store based in Rochester, MN stocks a full selection of trash cans, wastebaskets, smoking stations and janitor carts. All orders over ship for free. BuyOnlineNow carries many popular brands of trash cans such as Safco and Rubbermaid trash cans.

Waste management is an important part of any operations, whether it be a large corporation or a small home office. Being able to find the right blend of aesthetics and functionality can be a very difficult task. Many customer related business may want to use decorative trash cans, while in a warehouse atmosphere, larger trash cans with wheels would make more sense. As more places are becoming smoke free, a smoker’s urn can be a convenient way to keep cigarette butts off the ground and in a proper waste receptacle.

In some places, such as hospitals and laboratories, a trash can is needed for the disposal of infectious waste. In this case, certified infectious waste containers should be used. They meet higher standards and regulations and comply with all safety and health codes. All biohazard waste receptacles that BuyOnlineNow carries meet the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard and all infectious waste containers are approved fire-safe.

BuyOnlineNow also carries trash cans that use motion sensors for opening and closing, minimizing the amount of contact a person would have with the waste inside. This can go a long way in preventing the spread of germs in the home or workplace. A less expensive alternative would be the regular step-on trash cans that open when you step on the pedal.

BuyOnlineNow carries some waste baskets that are labeled specifically for recycled materials. This can be very helpful when trying to keep recyclable material separate from the regular trash. BuyOnlineNow has shown a commitment to environmentally-friendly alternatives with their “Go Green” campaign, and strongly recommends recycling.

About BuyOnlineNow.com: Providing office supplies and office furniture to individuals and businesses for the last 7 years, BuyOnlineNow.com carries over 30,000 products in 85 distribution centers nationwide. BuyOnlineNow.com has been listed as one of the fastest growing companies in America every year since 2005 by Inc. Magazine. In 2007 BuyOnlineNow.net, their Canadian equivalent opened for business, and has been growing steadily ever since.
