Our attorneys at Rawls, Dickinson & Scheer have extensive experience representing clients in criminal tax cases, including those involving tax evasion and tax fraud.  Tax evasion involves individuals, firms, trusts and other entities evading payment of taxes by breaking the law.   Taxpayers who deliberately misrepresent or conceal the true state of their affairs to tax authorities in order to reduce their tax liability can be found guilty of tax fraud.  Tax fraud includes dishonest tax reporting, such as underreporting income, profits or gains; or overstating deductions. Conviction can result in jail time, fines, and other serious financial penalties.

Our firm has particular experience representing clients in corporate sales and withholding tax investigations and illegal drug tax cases.  We understand the intricacies of the tax codes and how to meet the evidence presented by the taxing authorities.
