Tax Fraud and Evasion Defense and Tax Compliance Counsel From Our Bellevue Lawyer
We can help come into compliance proactively, or we can build a strong tax evasion defense and represent you in U.S. District Court if you have been indicted for:
- Failure to file tax returns
- Failure to pay taxes owed
- Filing false returns
Most people do not willfully defraud the government. Perhaps you did not realize you owed the taxes. Perhaps your spouse or ex-spouse kept you in the dark regarding your tax obligations. Perhaps you made an honest mistake on your return. Perhaps you filed a fraudulent return as a result of an elaborate investment and tax evasion scam. Maybe you were too busy or suffered a personal hardship. Or you thought you were off the IRS' radar and you would "catch up later." But now, in addition to tax debt, penalties and interest, there is the serious possibility of jail time.
We act quickly to determine how much you owe and your ability to make amends. If you can pay the tax, it may be in your best interests to do so. If you have been losing sleep because you cannot pay the tax, we can act as the go-between to work out an arrangement. If you hire a lawyer and take steps toward voluntary compliance, the government will have a harder time proving criminal intent.
