Managing Partner - International Tax Attorney
CurrentMy practice focuses on international tax and federal, state and local tax issues, particularly civil and criminal tax controversy defense. I advise clients on a wide variety of international tax issues including the former Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program, including Streamlined Disclosures, FATCA, treaties, IRS informational reporting, and legal needs for expanding into the U.S. market. As a part of my international work, I travel throughout Mexico and Asia educating on U.S. international tax issues, U.S. business considerations and servicing clients. Through my controversy work I coordinate and defend clients during audits by the IRS, Franchise Tax Board, Board of Equalization, and EDD. Additionally, I work with clients on collection issues with the same agencies, including installment agreements, offers in compromise, and issues surrounding liens, levies, and wage garnishments.
