Criminal Tax Litigation

Criminal tax litigation involves legal proceedings where a person or business is accused of committing tax-related crimes, such as tax evasion or fraud. Unlike civil tax cases, which typically resolve monetary disputes with tax authorities, criminal tax litigation can lead to severe penalties, including fines and imprisonment. The government must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the accused intentionally violated tax laws. Defending against these charges often requires navigating complex legal issues, making it essential for individuals or businesses facing such allegations to seek expert legal representation.
