Interesting Facts about the career
An audit occurs when a taxpayer is targeted by the IRS for making errors, committing fraud, or providing otherwise questionable information. It is a thorough investigation of your tax records.
When setting up your will and determining where any money, property, or possessions are going, it might be handy to have a tax lawyer on hand to bounce questions off of. Tax lawyers can help you learn about tax exemption trusts and all of the taxation laws associated with the inheritance of money, property, and possessions.
If you owe the IRS enough money, they can choose to start seizing your assets. These assets include vehicles, homes, off-shore assets, bank accounts, and more. Tax lawyers help you set up a solid defense against the IRS seizing your assets. The IRS will send you warnings, demanding payment. At this point, if you don’t pay, the IRS will send you a final notice, giving you 30 days to request a hearing with a settlement officer.
