Criminal Tax Representation

Our experience and understanding of tax law has enabled us to successfully represent taxpayers who have faced a criminal investigation by the IRS or a state tax agency. If you are or suspect you may become the subject of a criminal investigation, you should consult an experienced tax attorney right away.

Criminal investigations are quite serious and the penalties can be very severe. The penalties for being convicted of tax crimes can include significant jail time, substantial fines, assessment of tax owed and substantial civil penalty and interest assessments. The most common types of tax crimes prosecuted include willfully failing to file income tax returns, filing an income tax return that contains a false item or items, willfully underreporting income, and tax evasion.

This is how we can help you if you are, or suspect you are, subject to a criminal investigation:

• Persuade the IRS or state tax authority not to proceed with the criminal investigation,
• Minimize any penalties or civil tax assessment, and
• Work out an acceptable payment arrangement for taxes owed and the penalties and interest that are assessed.
