Defend Your Rights With Help From A Detroit Tax Evasion Lawyer
The Internal Revenue Service and the Department of Justice inspire fear, and for good reason. Federal prosecutors will aggressively prosecute tax crimes, seizing assets and seeking prison terms where they see criminal intent to defraud the U.S. Treasury.
LaRene & Kriger PLC can counter the considerable resources and reach of government investigators. Their Detroit criminal defense attorneys have successfully defended clients on charges of tax evasion and tax fraud. Their pre-indictment representation has also enabled clients to resolve tax controversies before criminal charges are filed. The firm serve Wayne County and Southeast Michigan.
Tax Fraud Lawyers Making Sense Of Your Charges For You
Tax matters are not always straightforward. Even with the advice of accountants or financial advisers – or perhaps because of their advice – you can run afoul of the IRS or the Justice Department. Experienced Detroit criminal defense attorneys Mark Kriger and Deday LaRene have represented business owners and corporate executives, doctors and lawyers, CPAs and comptrollers and high net worth individuals who have been investigated or indicted for tax-related crimes such as:
- Tax evasion: Failure to file returns or willfully hiding money from the IRS
- Tax fraud: Falsified tax returns, from unreported revenue to fabricated deductions
- Money laundering
- Conspiracy, mail fraud or wire fraud
The government must meet a high standard regarding intent to defraud, and our legal team holds the prosecution to that burden of proof. In tax crime cases, they focus largely on the pre-indictment arena. Justice Department policy often allows taxpayers to argue before the Tax Division in Washington prior to bringing formal charges. The firm works with tax experts to challenge the government’s assertions, for instance, demonstrating that deductions were proper or that the government incorrectly calculated taxable income.
Prepared To Handle Your Tax Fraud Or Tax Evasion Appeal
If the IRS and federal prosecutors move forward with a tax fraud indictment, the Detroit tax fraud and tax evasion attorneys have the federal court trial experience and appellate experience to protect your interests. They realize that a conviction could result in prison or financial ruin. They work hard to make the white collar crime charges and possibly the tax liability go away or to mitigate the impact.
