Ronnie Lynn Deutch
Ronnie Lynn Deutch Ripped off by a Schiester of a lawyer, and a slick talking phone sales rep, Internet
12th of Nov, 2010 by User113288
My current wife and I are were being harassed due to my X-wifes old tax debts that she acquired prior to our divorce being finalized, to the tune of over $40,000.00 in taxes penalties and fees. With the economy being what it is, and my profession in sales not supporting us as it were, we looked into tax resolution companies. After a vast amount of research and some due diligence, we chose to hire Ronnie Lynn Deutch (herein referred to as "RLD" ), as our Attorney in this mess.


We were told by the original "sales rep" that we absolutely qualified for an "offer in compromise" and that our debt, (due to our current income bracket would or should be reduced down to about $500.00 to $1200.00 total). After Many phone calls (14), we decided to retain RLD. We began making payments right away, and have payed for the last 12 months, consistently to the point that we even had to borrow money from friends or relatives to feed our newborn because if we missed a payment to RLD they would DROP us as a client and NOT return ANY of our monies.


I recently contacted the IRS, they had not heard from RLD about our case after 12 months. I contact RLD, they promised me that they not only had contacted them, but had already worked out the offer in compromise, but was just waiting for my final payment. The IRS then told me this was a lie. Not a week later I received a call stating I would have to sign a "release" allowing RLD to speak with the IRS. I found thid very funy, because I had just been informed that not only had RLD been talking to the IRS, but had supposedly worked everythign out already. ( the lies continue )


After 12 payments, the IRS IS STILL GARNISHING our pay, I have placed numerous phone calls, mailed certified letters, and sent many e-mails to RLD, NO return call, not contac whatsoever.


12 months later, WOW, SUPRISE, we received a letter today stating and I quote " because of your current financial status, (me not working), we do not qualify for an Offer in compromise, and that if I started working, then we would not qualify because we would make too much " So im a bit confused. If im NOT working we don't make enough, (i guess), and if i am working we make to much, (i guess).


RLD then states that they ARE willing to work out a payment arrangement between the IRS and US. (I was offered this from the very beginning from the IRS, but could NOT afford it ). RLD goes on to say that they have performed their duties diligently, and to the BEST OF THIER ABILITIES.... ( I laughed at this one).


What RLD does not know is, I recorded EVERY single conversation. You see when you call them or they call you, they state that every call could or might be recorded for "training or other purposes", well because of that statement ALL parties know they are being recorded, therefore I was in NO LEGAL OBLIGATION to notify them that I WAS RECORDING EACH AND EVERY CALL. I have them rocorded stating that they could guarantee me that we qualify for and wil be awarded an Offer In Compromise, and that the IRS hassles would be a thing of the past as soon as I paid them. I have the original sales rep, "vince" my "case worker", and my "case attorney" all saying the sme thing.


I am in the process of contacting the California District Attorney and Attorney generals offices. I am also going to be hiring a Lawyer in California to sue RLD for the Monies I have payed them, plus interest, attorney fees, and damages (interest on my IRS fees due to their NOT WORKING on the case at all). Altogether, I will be suing for over $20,000.00.


I caution you to hire a "REAL LAWYER", go through the hard long battle, and do as MUCH of the paperwork and legwork yourself. RLD and other tax settlement firms are scammers and prey on those of us whom are desperately seeking some sort of light at the end of the proverbial tunnel.
