TAX PROFESSIONAL CIVIL AUDIT DEFENSE
As a tax professional, your personal income tax compliance is just as important as the tax services you provide to your clients. When the IRS initiates a civil examination of your personal income tax returns, your financial stability, professional reputation, and ability to continue operating your tax preparation business may be at risk.
At The Walton Firm, we defend tax return preparers, Enrolled Agents (EAs), Certified Public Accountants (CPAs), Electronic Return Originators (EROs), and tax business owners facing IRS civil audits of their personal income tax returns. For tax professionals, these examinations can extend beyond civil tax liabilities, potentially exposing them to heightened IRS scrutiny, referrals to IRS Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI), and allegations of tax evasion, filing false tax returns, or other federal tax offenses.
