Federal Tax Evasion Lawyer
Federal Tax Evasion defense requires early, careful strategy because IRS criminal investigations, tax-loss allegations, payroll issues, business records, offshore accounts, false returns, and sentencing exposure can create serious criminal, financial, professional, and reputational consequences.
Lebedin Kofman LLP represents clients in New York federal and state matters, including investigations and prosecutions connected to the Eastern District of New York (EDNY), Southern District of New York (SDNY), New York City, Nassau County, Suffolk County, and related jurisdictions.
Issues to Review Early
- willfulness, tax due and owing, and alleged affirmative acts of evasion
- accountant records, bank records, returns, business ledgers, and communications
- civil-tax overlap, voluntary disclosures, audits, subpoenas, and criminal referral issues
Defense Strategy
The defense may involve reviewing subpoenas, warrants, discovery, financial records, agency records, witness statements, communications, expert issues, loss calculations, sentencing exposure, and collateral consequences. Early work can help preserve evidence, prevent harmful statements, narrow the issues, and position the case for dismissal, reduction, negotiation, sentencing advocacy, or trial.
Speak With Counsel
If you received a subpoena, target letter, agency contact, search warrant, arrest notice, or indictment, do not guess about your exposure. Contact Lebedin Kofman LLP before speaking with investigators or producing materials without a strategy.
