What is a Tax Attorney?
In conjunction with your CPA, tax attorneys are lawyers who specialize in the complicated field of tax law where penalties for mistakes can be serious.
What could happen to me if I ingore the IRS?
Without sufficiently handling any issues with the IRS, you could have your assets seized by the IRS, they could possibly garnish your wages, place a lien on your property (including your home or car), or in extreme situations you could face criminal arrest. It is extremely important when the IRS believes that you have violated the tax code that you employ an attorney that has experience in this field of law and can advise you with adequate representation in a timely manner.
When do you need a Tax Attorney?
