Tax Attorneys Providing IRS Help, Consultations, and Defenses.  Another Booming Field in a Recession

While businesses such as our Chinese translation services have been hit hard by the recent financial crisis, tax attorneys have been enjoying a not-so-surprising increase in their businesses, with the help of the recent voluntary disclosure program from the IRS as well as the tightened rules for tax audit requirements.

Los Angeles, California.: Yes, Abacus Chinese Translation Services has received less businesses compared to last year.  Yes, many other translation service providers have been suffering from the recent financial crisis.  And yes, tax attorneys have been extremely busy recently and making lots of money compared to last year.

Thanks partially to the recent voluntary disclosure program from the IRS.  Many people have been seeking help from experienced tax attorneys.  Under the voluntary disclosure program of the IRS,  taxpayers with hidden overseas or offshore accounts had until October 15, 2009 to voluntary disclose them. Those taxpayers who do not voluntarily disclose their hidden accounts will face much harsher civil penalties, where applicable, and possible criminal prosecution.

Thus, many people, especially those who have foreign accounts, sought help from tax attorneys.  Most of them are US permanent residents who hold a foreign passport, or those wealthy people who have accounts in countries classified as tax havens.  When they get a letter from the IRS, they will likely seek help from tax attorneys.

Tax attorneys are also helped by the recent recession, as the federal government as well as many States tightened the requirements for tax audits.  More companies have been requested for tax audits in California compared to last year.  Aside from accounting firms, tax attorneys offer helps for IRS inquiries.  They can also defend you in courts.

Thus, tax attorneys are in the industry that is recession proof.  It goes countertrend with the economy.   However, where should a person to find a qualified tax attorney?
