About Us

About Our Firm

After twenty years of providing bookkeeping, financial statement and tax services, Curtis McAllaster, CPA, limited his practice to tax matters only. In 1998 Curtis became a charter member of the American Society of IRS Problem Solvers, a group of Attorneys, Certified Public Accountants, and Enrolled Agents dedicated to the representation of taxpayers involving unfiled tax returns, unpaid taxes, liens and levies, audits, and other tax controversies.

As a member of the American Society of Tax Problem Solvers who has earned recognition as Certified Tax Resolution Specialist, (CTRS), I am uniquely qualified to represent taxpayers before the IRS and other tax authorities. Our dedication of high standards and work ethic is the reason our client base returns year after year - especially those who previously came to us for problem resolution.

Our Mission

Our mission is to help people who are experiencing pain caused by taxing agencies. We permanently solve the problem and help clients avoid all future tax problems by maintaining compliance with all tax laws and implementing sound tax planning.

Our Team

Curtis McAllaster, CPA

I've been in practice in San Diego since 1984. Formerly in the North Park area of San Diego, I relocated to a great office in Ocean Beach, San Diego, on the 1st of May, 2000. I am licensed as a Certified Public Accountant by:

  • California State Board of Accountancy; #40049
  • Kansas State Board of Accountancy; #3354

As a CPA I am authorized to represent taxpayers before the IRS along with attorneys and enrolled agents. Representing people before the IRS is by far the most rewarding part of my accounting and tax practice because, as you can imagine, when the burden of IRS Problems is lifted from someone's shoulders the relief they feel is so great! With thanks like that it's no wonder that this service is rewarding.

People tell me time and time again that it was so easy to talk to me that they wished they had taken the bull by the horns years ago and resolved their IRS problem earlier. I'm here. I'm ready to help you get on with your life free of IRS Problems. Give me or my assistant a call now at (619-523-3098) It's FREE. What have you got to lose?
