How a Tax Fraud Attorney Can Help

There are many situations in which the IRS can bring charges of tax fraud or evasion against you.

However, many people don’t appreciate how severe the consequences can be, even for a seemingly small mistake like forgetting to file your taxes one year.

Additionally, a problem on your federal taxes can also affect your state taxes, creating an even more complex problem.

Situations that can result in charges being brought against you include:

  • Missing tax forms
  • Claiming false deductions
  • Failing to file your yearly tax return
  • Intentionally overestimating your deductions
  • Claiming personal expenses as business expenses
  • Making false claims to the IRS while being audited
  • Making incorrect or inaccurate statements to the IRS while under investigation

If you’ve fallen behind on your taxes, if you think you’re under investigation for failing to file your taxes, or if charges have already been brought against you, call one of our attorneys for help.

Our tax lawyers are familiar with both federal and state laws, can help you understand the charges brought against you, and can negotiate on your behalf with the IRS.

Barton was amazing and I could not have had the positive outcome without his guidance. His team is prompt and great to work with. He even called while out of the country on vacation, which I feel shows he went above and beyond what someone might expect from their attorney. Experienced and cares! I would highly recommend Barton!

Very professional. I came and spoke to Barton Morris about my situation and my case. I asked him if he was willing to help me. He asked about the details and my background and history. He give me a positive confidence he can help me and my odds. His price is reasonable. He’s not one of those hole in the wall lawyers who treat you as a number. You are a human being with a personal life. You treats you as a valued client no matter how big or small the case.

I had Mike Norman as my lawyer for a case. I just wanted to come on here and thank him for doing his best for me. I am grateful during this stressful time. I’ve used Barton Morris as a lawyer about 11 years ago and he was awesome which is why we came back. I do recommend!

Extremely knowledgeable and very helpful when it comes to navigating the complicated nature of cannabis businesses in Michigan. I met with Barton where he answered all my questions about the pre-qualification application, and was prompt in answering subsequent questions through email after the meeting was completed. I certainly plan to continue utilize Barton’s knowledge in the future.

Just sitting here on my balcony. A bit chilly but sunny and beautiful. I am ever so grateful to have 100% freedom. Wasn’t sure I would ever meet this day. Hiring you(and your team) was the best decision I have ever made. You are a true master of your trade. As you sit with your beautiful family on Thanksgiving know that this year I am truly thankful of my freedom and the choice to hire Barton Morris. Thanks again. I will never forget what you have done for me.
