Dealing With an IRS Audit?
Put Our Proven Tax Attorneys On Your Side
An IRS audit notice can put fear and doubt in the mind of even the most confident person. It is the financial and legal equivalent of being followed by the police block after block. Eventually, you start asking yourself questions:
- Have I done something wrong?
- Am I in trouble?
- Could the IRS be mistaken?
- How can I protect myself?
- Should I hire a tax lawyer for my IRS issue?
Make no mistake — if you are being audited by the IRS, you do face the possibility of significant tax penalties and even criminal charges if things don’t go your way.
And paperwork. Mountains of paperwork.
As part of your audit, the IRS will jam you with paperwork requests, demanding an incredible amount of documentation within a tight 30-day deadline. For the average person — even an accountant for that matter — IRS audits are fraught with pitfalls.

An Internal Revenue Service (IRS) audit often occurs when the IRS needs to confirm some details on a tax return form and determine its accuracy. Approximately one in 75 individuals get audited by the IRS. This implies that about 80 percent of all taxpayers will get audited at some point during their working lifetime. However, it is not always random. Those who get selected are often people who have a much higher likelihood of making an error or fraudulent claims on the tax return.
The IRS is one of the most powerful organizations and known to “win” a majority of their audits. This is because most individuals are unsure of all tax laws or what they need to deliver to the auditor, resulting in many tax filers owing the IRS money. Due to these factors, IRS audits can be stressful and frightening. Rather than getting frustrated and anxious about an upcoming IRS audit, it is best to acquire an IRS audit defense. A strong audit defense includes the services of a professional tax attorney, who can assist in looking for all the possibilities that will ensure a positive financial outcome at the conclusion of the audit.
Below are some more reasons why you need IRS audit defense:
Beyond Adequate Representation
From the moment you receive correspondence from the IRS, the audit defense team will be with you every step of the way until your situation is resolved. They will ensure to adequately represent you and guarantee that the IRS authority does not take complete control of the audit process. Even if the audit was triggered by a minor error or excessive deductions, a tax attorney can view the case from multiple angles and find loopholes to legally protect your interests. IRS audit defense will eliminate the worry over an IRS audit of your business or personal taxes.
Proper, Professional Communication
Tax lawyers will draft all responses to IRS notices, deal with all the paperwork, attend every meeting and even help you present your case legally to the auditor. They can handle any challenging situations and fully comprehend the audit process as well as all tax-related jargon to deal with the auditor more effectively and ensure smooth communication between both parties. Good communication also helps the tax audit process to become quick and painless.
Minimize The Financial Impact of an Audit
If you want to save your business and yourself from IRS penalties, interest fees and possible criminal charges such as jail time, you need a tax audit defense. The IRS has many resources readily available to pursue the tax audit. They can look deep into your financial history, dating back to many years before the current audit. Once you have a reliable and experienced IRS defense, you may result in paying the lowest possible taxes and charges allowed by the taxation law or have your audits dismissed after the tax audit defense argues your appeal.
Attorney-Client Privilege
Representation by a tax attorney provides significant advantages of the attorney-client privilege. A tax attorney cannot testify against his client with any information regarding taxes and finances that have been disclosed to him. Generally, this means that statements you make to your tax lawyer cannot be disclosed to the IRS or anyone else. A good IRS defense team will advise you on these privilege issues and even conduct privilege reviews.
