Innocent Spouse Relief. When the joint return is your problem alone.
If your spouse (or former spouse) understated tax on a jointly-filed return and you did not know, IRC §6015 offers three forms of relief from joint and several liability: traditional innocent spouse, separation of liability, and equitable relief. We assess eligibility against each ground, prepare Form 8857, document the unknowing-spouse factors (financial control, knowledge, benefit, abuse), and pursue through Appeals + Tax Court if denied. Particularly important post-divorce when you receive collection notices for years your ex controlled.
How we handle Conservation Easement, end-to-end.
A conservation easement is a permanent restriction on the use of land, typically donated to a qualified land trust to preserve the land's natural or open-space character.
Eligibility review
Land must have conservation value: scenic, ecological, historic, open-space, or recreational. We assess whether your land qualifies. Most rural and undeveloped properties do; urban properties rarely.
Land trust selection
Donation must be to a qualified land trust (501(c)(3)). We refer to local and national land trusts (Land Trust Alliance, The Nature Conservancy, regional trusts). They accept the easement and hold the restriction in perpetuity.
Engineering + appraisal
Engineering work documents the conservation value. Qualified appraisal determines diminished land value (the deduction amount). IRS scrutinizes appraisals; we use highly credentialed appraisers with conservation easement experience.
Legal documentation + closing
Easement document recorded with county recorder. Permanent restriction runs with the land. Donor receives appraisal-supported deduction. Coordination with attorney specializing in conservation easements.
