Tax debt assistance. What it is and what we do: Tax debt assistance is designed to help individuals and business owners resolve IRS and state tax problems in a structured, transparent, and client-centered way. At Hazlewood & Associates, we take the time to fully review your tax situation, explain all available resolution options, and develop a strategy tailored to your specific circumstances. No documents, financial disclosures, or proposals are submitted to the IRS until you have reviewed, approved and signed them—we believe you should always understand and be comfortable with what is being presented. Our goal is not just compliance, but long-term relief, clear communication, and outcomes that protect your financial stability.
What We Don’t Do: We do not promise unrealistic outcomes, charge fees based on a percentage of your tax debt, or rush documents to the IRS without your knowledge. We don’t use one-size-fits-all solutions or push settlements that may create long-term financial harm. We do not represent you before the IRS in an unlimited capacity. At Hazlewood & Associates, every recommendation is based on a careful review of your financial picture, and nothing is submitted on your behalf until you have reviewed and approved it. Our focus is on ethical representation, informed decision-making, and strategies that are in your best interest—not quick fixes or high-pressure sales tactics.
IRS Audit assistance: We provide professional support and assistance when you receive an IRS or state audit notice. At Hazlewood & Associates, we help you understand what the audit involves, what the taxing authority is actually requesting, and how to respond accurately and strategically. We review your records with you, identify potential issues before they become problems, and prepare responses designed to protect your rights and minimize unnecessary exposure. Nothing is submitted to the IRS or state agency until you have reviewed, approved and signed it, and you are kept informed at every stage of the process so there are no surprises. Don't panic. Just give us a call.
We offer tax preparation services to individuals and businesses regardless of where you are located in the United States. We also utilize our preparation services to ensure our debt assistance clients are current and compliant with the IRS and state taxing entity.
Starting a business is exciting. Running one can be rewarding. Unfortunately, a large portion of our clients were or are small business owners that did not understand the financial aspect of their business and are now dealing with the consequences. Maybe you or someone you know has the passion and drive but not the "know how" to handle the necessary "behind the scenes" and financial/ tax components. Do not worry. That is where we shine and can help you do the same.
Hazlewood & Associates will provide you a comprehensive analysis of your business. We will not come in and tell you how to run your business. We will provide you with helpful information and then work with you to introduce changes that need to occur, polish what is working and work together to make your organization better than it already is.

Hazlewood & Associates was founded in 2024 with a simple belief: people facing tax problems deserve clarity, respect, and honest guidance, not pressure or fear
The firm was founded by Dustin Hazlewood, whose professional background is rooted not in finance, but in service. Before entering the tax industry, Dustin spent 14 years in emergency services, working as a 911 and private-sector nationally registered paramedic. During that time, he earned a Bachelor of Science in Management with a concentration in finance, a Paralegal diploma and two specialty certificates in investigations and civil litigation.
Prior to that, he served as an EMT-Basic, earning his certification at just 16 years old. For more than a decade, his career placed him alongside individuals and families at some of the most difficult moments of their lives — when stress was high, decisions mattered, and trust was essential.
That experience shaped how he approaches tax debt assistance today.
After leaving emergency services, Dustin joined a tax resolution firm to continue helping people through crisis — this time financial rather than medical. It didn’t take long to recognize a troubling pattern within much of the industry: high-pressure sales models, inflated promises, and fee structures that often took advantage of people already in financially vulnerable positions. Rather than walk away, Dustin paid attention. He learned how those models worked — and, more importantly, why they failed clients.
Hazlewood & Associates was built using that knowledge as a blueprint for what not to do.
Our Philosophy
We believe tax debt assistance should be:
We don’t promise outcomes — because no ethical firm can. What we promise is diligence, preparation, and advocacy grounded in the facts of each case.
Reaching a definitive solution is often a long, time-intensive process, and we believe clients deserve to understand that from the start.
We don’t charge monthly fees simply to “stay on the case,” and we don’t disappear once paperwork is submitted. Every recommendation we make is reviewed with the client and signed by them before it is sent anywhere. Our role is to help clients understand their situation, identify realistic options, and move forward with a plan — not fear.
A Different Kind of Advocacy
Just as in emergency services, the goal isn’t panic — it’s stability.
At Hazlewood & Associates, INC we approach tax debt the same way Dustin approached emergency medicine: assess carefully, act deliberately, communicate clearly, and always keep the human being at the center of the process.
