Legal Question in Tax Law in Kansas

I'm ''ex-I.R.S.'' turned Enrolled Agent Representative.

I'm caught in the middle of an intense Internal Criminal Investigation with two special agents from the Internal Revenue Service. The primary witness for a potential

Grand Jury trial implicating my prior employer who is a Tax Lawyer. Whose evasive tax strategies and shelters derived have benefited and hurt thousands of people with it latitude of continued deprivity on those unknow victims known as silent investors targeted for their investment capital. Then a continuum of corruption insues from their to the clients own devises of white collar crime techniques

What is most difficult is that in my over seventeen years of industry knowledge specialization in the taxation law area I am stymied as to my decision. I am as an ex-IRS tax examiner myself from the Kansas City Service Center having worked my way up to a specialized unit that introduced me to the complexity of the Internal Revenue Code. This knowledge and industry specialization of my company Tax Time Financial Service, Inc. I have come to know the inner workings of several individual and small-business white collar crime devises and strategies. This time though it was my own employer. The delimma posed for me was to leave and turn him in myself to the I.R.S. C.I.

There are several issues that you raised. First and foremost it is not advisable for you to discuss a pending criminal matter in a public space (such as this BBS), as you may be waiving some of your rights or unwittingly make an admission as to civil and/or criminal culpability. Second, you must contact a criminal tax attorney ASAP. This applies whether or not you are the person being investigated or if it is just your employer. Do not risk your freedom without knowing your rights.

You need to IMMEDIATELY seek the advice of a criminal attorney. Stop talking and seek help!

You should not discuss any of the details of the situation with anyone unless advised to do so by legal counsel. This includes postings details on internet bulletin boards, etc. Remember, what you say can and will be used against you.

I sense a bit of despair in your message. It appears you have worked hard your whole life to develop a level of expertise and you now see that threatened. The situation sounds serious, but remember, these matters can be resolved.

From your message, I get the sense that you feel that you are a witness. However, you may be a target. If you have not engaged in culpable activities yourself, you will want to seek an attorney to approach CID to offer your information as a witness. You do not know what they think they know. Even if you feel that you have committed no wrong, they may currently have a different picture. If you have engaged in potentially culpable activities, you need a lawyer to deal with the situation. The bottomline is that you need competant legal help. You definitely need a criminal attorney and would be best served by a criminal attorney that has an extensive tax background.

I would welcome the opportunity to discuss this matter with you. Please visit our website at www.4taxhero.com and look out pages on criminal services and review my qualifications. If you are interested, please do not hesitate to call toll free at 866-4-TAXHERO (866-482-9437.)

I wish you the best in this troubling situation.
