Ms. Nicole Rosen worked with me step by step through the resolution process. She listened to me and advised me by always giving professional advice and options throughout each point of resolution. Nicole represented me during IRS communication and correspondence. Ultimately, she negotiated a feasible plan to pay off remaining tax debt. I am grateful for Ms. Rosen and the entire staff at Watkins Tax.

1. Take your money - just under $10,000
2. Promise they’ll help
3. Do nothing.
4. Ask for a refund.
5. Silence
6. Lesson learned.

Hired this bunch for tax resolution and after two years of no calls, no emails, no resolution, etc., dropped them and hired an actual trax attorney that solved my problem with a simple letter to the IRS. DO NOT give these people any money, you will be in for a severe disappoinment if you do. Look at their reviews on anyplace other than their website and you will se the true ranking of these people. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Save yourself some cash.

OMG! This has bee a full-fledged nightmare! These people are the absolute worst! Husband and I both had lost our jobs due to the Covid mess. We had to use our savings and cash out our 401k’s just to make ends meet. Still unemployed we sought their services to help with our tax situations paying them $4000 we really didn’t have. They assured us that they could most definitely help us with our tax bill of approximately 17k, especially due to our unemployment status at the time. Weeks went by, then month and now here we are 4 years later they have done nothing but make our nightmare worse! Their communication is horrendous! I cannot tell you how many people for the OKC office we have been through. They never call you back and/or takes days to return an email with absolutely no news and never any good news. The promises they made and never kept. We are sick to our stomach because we are now employed for almost 2 years now but making about 50% of what we were prior to losing our jobs. In the meantime, our penalties continue to grow and now we own close to 30k and were recently told that the IRS is not willing to negotiate our tax bill and that we must pay it plus the penalties. Why…. because we apparently now make too much? WTH!! This should have been fixed 2 ½ years ago! Where is our recourse???

Your better off paying money to taxes instead!!! Had multiple different legal aids at least 6 ask me for same paperwork over and over, could never talk to anyone. Paid 15 thousand in federal did nothing to stop it. Told me that the lien on my wife’s house wouldn’t hold up but did, now they want to close my case because it’s been 3 years and they are waiting to clear there books!

What you’ve put my husband & I through this whole time has been a joke but you got your money. Now case closed & we are still in the same boat. I will not recommend this company to anyone. The sad part is I was recommended by a church member, how sad..

If I could give NEGATIVE stars, I would. Here are the guarantees when hiring Travis Watkins Tax...Bad legal advice, high employee turn over, nothing getting done, never speaking to an actual attorney, everything they say won't happen, WILL happen and in the end, YOU will still be stuck dealing with the IRS. HIRE SOMEONE ELSE OR DO IT YOURSELF.
I hired them to help me abate penalties and interest as I had made significant payments towards my back liabilities owed. They did not do this, instead suggested an Offer in Compromise would be the best way to go. They never considered the payments made even though they were provided proof of payment. After months of no contact, I reached out to check status. They had not done anything so my wife posted a very honest review to which I received an immediate response from a gentleman named Maverick, who identified himself as the office manager. He essentially black mailed us into removing the negative reviews or they were going to cease all work and he promised they were close to a resolution. THIS WAS COMPLETELY FALSE. After several more months, an offer was submitted and ultimately rejected by the IRS. They filed a lien for the full amount owed, excluding payments made. I have not heard from Travis Watkins Tax until receiving a letter dated January 30, 2024 congratulating me on my installment agreement and they were closing my file. They not only spelled my name wrong in the letter but they did not play a part in setting up the installment agreement. I contacted the IRS and sat on hold for nearly 4 hours to set it up while I work to actually abate my penalties and interest. I hired them in September of 2021 and I am no closer to settling this issue than I was then.
Bottom line....SAVE YOUR MONEY. PAY IT TO THE IRS INSTEAD.
I encourage anyone in a similar situation to file a complaint with the Oklahoma Bar Association. I certainly will be.

RUN!!!! THIS PLACE IS TERRIBLE. DO NOT LISTEN TO THEIR HOTSHOT SALESMAN, MAVERICK, EITHER!!!! HE LIES JUST TO GET YOUR MONEY. I WAS PROMISED THAT MY TAX DEBT WOULD BE REDUCED AFTER LOOKING AT MY BOOKS AND TAX HISTORY......WRONG!!!! TRAVIS WATKINS LEFT ME WITH $217,000 OWED!!! WTF?? THIS IS WORSE THAN WHEN I STARTED WITH THEM 2 YEARS AGO. IN THOSE 2 YEARS THEY ONLY LOGGED INTO MY BANK ACCOUNTS TWICE TO UPDATE MY BOOKKEEPING....AFTER I CALLED AND COMPLAINED OVER AND OVER.
OH! AND GOOD LUCK GETTING ANYONE WITH ANY INTELLIGENCE TO ANSWER THE PHONE!! THEY LIKE TO PLAY THE LEAVE A VOICEMAIL AND WE WILL NEVER CALL YOU BACK GAME.
THIS WAS THE WORST BUSINESS EXPERIENCE IVE EVER HAD IN 23 YEARS OF BEING IN BUSINESS. THESE PEOPLE CANNOT BE TRUSTED.

Our story is the about the same as everyone else’s here.
Got a letter from the IRS about filing a lien on our property. Called Travis Watkins the next day. Paid 4,000.00….Filled out paper work. Then you wait and wait. Understanding that the IRS takes forever and thats the excuse T. Watkins team gives IF you ever get ahold of them. Everyone who works there is lost in space. Literally, no one knows Jack $hit. After a year NOTHING has been done. We ended up paying our taxes off and told T. Watkins we no longer need their services and we were charged 1,400.00. Do not hire them! So we paid 4,000 just to have T. Watkins stop the irs from sending letters and that’s t!!!!!!! Hopefully we will get the 1,400 they charged!

Travis Watkins and staff were wonderful. Travis was referred to me by a friend who went to law school with him and stated he was very fair in pricing and would work hard to help me. They worked with the IRS to get my garnishments stopped while I was in the process of proving I was not responsible for the back taxes owed, my ex-husband was. I was very impressed with the way this was handled so quickly. They were very diligent. Money well spent. I would recommend to anyone!!
