Legal Question in Tax Law in India

Hi,

I'm based in India and work as a VA (virtual assistant). Recently, a U.S. real estate company has approached him to:

* assist with reviewing and signing the tax returns and receiving related notices.

* to act as trustee and sign all the related documents for a property purchase in Fresno California.

* contact certain individuals in the US regarding the properties.

Does all of this looks okay? Can a company hire such agents outside of the country they're operating in? Moreover, I don't hold any legal/accounts degree. The local lawyers I contacted have left him more confused than before. :-)

Company can hire but usually they hire local counsels to verify the land documents coz they know better.

There are two guess;

1. Comanies hire Indian advocates coz of cut cost and low fee structure.

2. There is some fraud and indian man may not be easily found the truth.

So be alert and findout the real fact.

You probably hold a Management degree?

Your work assignment is lawful from India law standpoint.

For you to act as trustee, some simple steps for creation of trust

must be made to be valid under Indian law.
