"Some people bend the tax law -- others break it. [The IRS CI] Criminal Investigation's job is to pursue the lawbreakers." -- IRS.gov
That's dead center on the main US IRS government website.
If you're being investigated by the United States IRS CI, they do not want your money. They want jail time.
They are not just trying to pressure you into paying penalties and back taxes. They want to put you in jail. The wealthy tend to lean on celebrity firms when confronted by the US IRS CI. Doing that generally does not work out well. Large brand name firms are highly proficient at billing you. They are not necessarily as good at telling jurors stories that make them empathize with you.
Our objective is to get you pronounced "innocent on all charges."We contacted an experienced US Tax Lawyer for some insight.
"Most of our clients come to us after being bullied by their retained law firm into pleading guilty for slightly reduced jail sentences. These firms should be sued," said Attorney Michael Minns.
"Your criminal tax evasion defense law firm's job should not be to negotiate a reduced jail sentence. But when fighting the US IRS CI, from the moment you walk in the door, [most lawyer's] objective is to get you back out and behind bars in as short a time as possible."
"We don't work that way,"
Our take away from our conversation with the attorney was this: [Your lawyer's] objective is to get you pronounced "innocent on all charges." After all, it's not up to the IRS to decide whether you "bent the law" or "broke it" -- it's up to a jury of your peers.
To talk to Michael Minns about selecting and persuading your peer jury, contact US tax lawyer M. Minns.
