Prescott CPA Patti O’Neill Adds Free Consults as IRS Lien and Audit Cases Rise in Arizona
Prescott, United States – June 17, 2026 / ONeill Tax Resolution /
O’Neill Tax Resolution, based in Prescott, Arizona, has announced the opening of a free consultation calendar for individuals and small business owners across the state who are facing IRS liens, audits, and unresolved tax returns. The announcement comes in direct response to an anticipated rise in IRS collection activity heading into 2026, positioning the firm to assist taxpayers at a critical point in their financial lives.
Free Consultations Timed to IRS Enforcement Increase
The decision to offer no-cost consultations reflects a deliberate effort to reduce barriers for Arizona taxpayers who may be uncertain where to turn as federal enforcement pressure builds. IRS collection activity is expected to intensify in 2026, placing more individuals and small business owners at risk of formal collection action, including liens placed against property and bank accounts.
Prescott CPA Patti O’Neill, the founder of O’Neill Tax Resolution, brings more than 35 years of Master’s-level tax resolution experience to each case she handles. That depth of experience spans a broad range of IRS issues, from unresolved back taxes and unfiled returns to formal audit defense and lien removal strategies. The free consultation is structured to give prospective clients a clear picture of their situation and realistic options before committing to any course of action.
“If you are dealing with an IRS lien, an audit notice, or years of unfiled returns, the worst thing you can do is wait,” said Patti O’Neill, Founder of O’Neill Tax Resolution. “Opening my calendar to free consultations is about making sure Arizona taxpayers have somewhere to start – without the pressure of an upfront cost when they are already under financial stress.”
Master’s-Level Expertise Applied to Complex IRS Cases
O’Neill Tax Resolution operates with a focus on personalized, client-centered guidance rather than a standardized approach. Patti O’Neill holds a Master’s-level credential that informs the depth of analysis she applies to each taxpayer’s circumstances. Cases involving small business owners, who often carry more complex tax obligations than individual filers, receive the same direct attention as those involving personal returns.
Over three decades of IRS case experience gives O’Neill Tax Resolution a practical perspective on how collection processes unfold and where intervention tends to be most effective. That experience covers the full lifecycle of a tax resolution case, from initial IRS contact through negotiation and formal resolution. Common outcomes pursued on behalf of clients include installment agreements, offers in compromise, penalty abatement requests, and lien subordination or withdrawal.
Who the Free Consultation Is Designed to Serve
The consultation offer is specifically aimed at Arizona residents and small business owners currently dealing with one or more of the following: an active IRS lien, a pending or ongoing audit, unpaid tax balances from prior years, or unfiled returns that have gone unaddressed. These are the circumstances where early, informed action typically produces better outcomes than delay.
The service area is centered in Prescott but extends to taxpayers throughout Arizona. Prescott CPA Patti O’Neill and her team are now accepting consultation requests from clients statewide, with the intent to assess each situation individually and outline a clear path toward resolution. The calendar opened following the firm’s assessment of where Arizona taxpayers are most likely to face IRS action in the near term.
The timing reflects a practical consideration: the period before enforcement actions escalate is generally when resolution options are broadest and least costly for the taxpayer.
