Tax Tiger
Tax Tiger has been in business since 2002. They work with most tax problems, but have no money back guarantee.
Tax Tiger was founded in 2002 after CEO and founder Kathy Hill decided that she was uncomfortable working for another company in the industry. She decided to start her own company where the focus was on staying true to ethical principles and practices. Tax Tiger is now a thriving company with several franchises. They have saved clients more than $120 million with their tax relief services.

Tax Services
Tax Tiger can resolve a full spectrum of tax-related issues, including wage garnishments, which can usually be lifted the day they are hired. They have found particular success in helping clients with the IRS Offer in Compromise (OIC). This method is used when the taxpayer’s liability is high and ability to pay is low – meaning they have lower income or minimal assets to liquidate.
Since the company’s launch in 2002, they have helped thousands of Americans save over $119.7 million in back taxes, penalties, and accrued interest on accounts. The claim the actual amount clients have paid collectively is over $5.2 million. These figures represent a saves of 96 percent, or four cents on the dollar.
Availability
Tax Tiger is licensed to work in all 50 states and with expertise as enrolled agents, CPAs, and tax attorneys. Several of their attorneys hold LLMs in Taxation Law and some of their CPAs hold Master’s degrees in Taxation, giving clients peace of mind that their tax burden is being handled by representatives specially trained to perform and negotiate in the tax arena.
Blog
They offer interested consumers a blog dedicated to getting anyone up to par on all aspects tax related. Articles range from comparing billionaires to the middle class when it comes to taxes, tax resolution by state, and methods to avoid wage garnishment, among several others.
The Bad
- Offer in compromise
- Accreditations
- Lack of transparency
Offer in Compromise
Among a few concerns we have with Tax Tiger, this company claims to specialize in offer in compromise (OIC). It is very difficult to obtain an offer in compromise. We advise customers to be prepared if Tax Tiger can’t provide an OIC, since it is not common that the IRS grants one. Requirements to obtain an OIC are no delinquent returns, and no open bankruptcies, on top of all previous estimated tax payments and deposits must have been made in a timely manner. This method allows taxpayers to potentially see a reduction in overall debt via settlement, but keep in mind, not only will assets most likely lead to liquidation, but this process could take a couple of years to complete – even with an experienced professional.
Accreditations
While the company employs a staff of qualified and certified tax attorney’s, CPA’s, and Enrolled Agents, we would like to see the company hold memberships and accreditations with the industries top regulators and firms, such as the NAEA and AICPA.
Lack of Transparency
On top of their overall lack of transparency regarding their fee structure, this company does not provide prospective clients the peace of mind of a refund policy. We like to see the individual profiles listed of staff members that actually do the work on tax relief cases, not just the company leadership. We know the company is operating with several franchises, which means lots of employees, but potential clients like to be familiar with the whole tax relief team, not just the CEO.
The Bottom Line
Tax Tiger’s over 15 years in business and high success shows their dedication to their clients. Tax Tiger provides solutions for customers, but we are concerned with their lack of a refund policy and their over advertised “offer in compromise.” We suggest potential customers be wary of their push for an offer in compromise in combination with no refund policy. With that being said, we recommend Tax Tiger on the basis the customer thoroughly does their research.
Overall, Tax Tiger provides good options for those looking for tax relief and we recommend taking advantage of their free consultation for a quote and to also check out our top recommended companies to compare their services.
Pricing
The price varies and is based on a flat fee matrix. When inquiring about specific pricing, we were informed that this aspect is impossible to assess without a full evaluation of each specific tax burden. They claim they can save clients 35 percent more than industry leaders; however this leaves the pricing door wide open, as all companies charge based on their own terms. Additionally, tax return preparation is priced separately from settlement and is based upon the complexity of the client’s situation.

This company offers a number of services to clients including:
- Offer in Compromise
- Currently Non-Collectible Status
- IRS Payment Plans
- Property Tax Reduction
- Unfiled Tax Returns and Back Tax Help

User Score108 people found this review helpful!Last year found me frantically searching the Internet, hoping to find resolution to a major problem that had been growing exponentially for nine years. For five of those nine years I had not filed taxes. It was just a matter of time before the Internal Revenue Service caught up with me. Due to steep interest and penalties, my indebtedness was growing daily. My worry and anxiety grew at a similar pace. That anxiety often robbed me of sleep.
While surfing the Internet, I came across a company named Tax Tiger. The interesting name caught my eye. I clicked on the “About Us” tab at the top of the page. A new page opened up and the very first sentence said that Tax Tiger was a “faith-based business.” That definitely caught my eye as I am a Christian and had been weighed down with a heavy load of shame for not obeying the law.
Under the testimonials tab were letters from people stating that they owed huge amounts of back taxes. I read them all. Numerous people wrote that Tax Tiger had represented them before the IRS and how the IRS accepted a mere fraction of what they owed as payment in full.
In this day of numerous scams, I was very skeptical. It all sounded too good to be true. But, my fear of the IRS was greater than my skepticism. I emailed Tax Tiger and the CEO herself, Kathy Hill, promptly called me on the phone. She explained what they would do for me. She also spoke of her faith in God. I decided to go for it.
The entire process was lengthy, but the work was done for a flat fee. Ms. Hill’s team of professional tax experts worked with me diligently every step of the way. They prepared what is called an Offer of Compromise – offering the IRS a fraction of the money owed as payment in full. Not only did Ms. Hill’s staff work tirelessly for me, they also treated me with respect at a time when I felt so unworthy of respect.
My home is 1,800 miles from Tax Tiger’s base in Sacramento, California, and it was wonderful that everything could be handled via email and the telephone. And, having a team of caring tax professionals between me and the IRS was a tremendous relief.
Last week I found a letter from the IRS in my mailbox. Not knowing what to expect, my hands shook as I opened it up. The first sentence stated that my Offer in Compromise had been accepted! I know, I know, it sounds unbelievable, but the IRS accepted only $1,152.00 as payment in full for $37,027.00 owed in back taxes! I mailed a money order for $1,152.00 to the IRS yesterday, almost jumping for joy when leaving the post office. For the first time in several years, I slept soundly, knowing that the nine-year nightmare of fear, anxiety and shame was over.
Be skeptical if you must, but what I write here is the unvarnished truth. If you are behind on your taxes you owe it to yourself to team up with the folks at Tax Tiger. I will be eternally grateful for what they did for me.
