Guarding Rights In Criminal Tax Investigations
The Internal Revenue Service employs special agents to conduct criminal investigations into potential tax fraud or tax evasion matters. When the IRS suspects that a business or individual has not properly complied with the tax laws, a civil or criminal investigation may be opened. At Kaspar & Lugay LLP, in Corte Madera, California, we zealously guard the rights of clients who are under investigation for possible criminal tax violations.
