Defending against tax crimes

The criminal defense attorneys at the Law Offices of Tacopina Seigel & DeOreo can protect your rights and provide you with experienced guidance regarding the following aspects of defending against a tax crime allegation in New York:

  • Pleading Requirements: 

    Tax evasion falls into two categories: willful attempts to evade the assessment of a tax and willful attempts to evade the payment of a tax. Evasion of a tax assessment most often occurs when someone files a false tax return that either fails to report income or claims deductions to which the filer is not entitled. Evasion of a tax payment most often results from the deliberate concealment of monies that could be collected by the IRS. In both cases, the prosecution must prove that payment evasion was willful.

  • Discovery issues: 

    Discovery in tax crime cases in NY almost always focuses on complex financial audits. It is important to retain attorneys who are familiar with this unique type of practice and who have good working relationships with other tax professionals whose assistance is required to put forth an effective defense.

  • Key witnesses:

    Just about every tax crimes case requires the assistance of expert tax professionals. The prosecution can be expected to proffer testimony from government tax experts and thus it is essential for the defense to hire equally qualified and competent tax accountants.
