About Gloria Chon
I am Gloria Chon, EA, Attorney at Law, and founder of Total Tax Expert, LLC. I hold an active California bar license and represent taxpayers as a federally licensed enrolled agent, providing full IRS and state tax representation. For more than 15 years I have helped individuals and small businesses resolve serious tax problems, and I handle every case personally. My focus is high-stakes matters: IRS audits, payroll and employment tax problems, trust fund recovery penalties, business tax debt, bank levies, wage garnishments, tax liens, and multi-year unfiled returns. I represent taxpayers nationwide before the IRS, plus complex state matters including California and numerous other states. I resolve cases through the full range of relief options: offers in compromise, installment agreements, currently not collectible (hardship) status, penalty abatement, lien withdrawal and discharge, levy release, innocent and injured spouse relief, audit reconsideration, and appeals. I built Total Tax Expert on a simple premise: no salespeople, no call centers, no junior associate handoffs. You speak with me, and I handle your case. My commitment is honest answers, transparent fees, and the relentless pursuit of the best possible outcome for every client.
