U.S. Tax Attorney

You’ve come to the right place. If you’re a US citizen or Green Card holder, living outside the United States, chances are you’ve had difficulty understanding how US tax rules operate and how they might apply to your situation.

You’ve also likely had concerns about your compliance with US tax law at some point. Your fears are not unwarranted. The IRS imposes tough, and sometimes unbending, penalties on those who aren’t compliant… and falling out of compliance is remarkably easy – even when you think you’re taking all the right steps. For those who don’t know what to do or choose to ignore the reality, penalties are equally high.

There is no shortage of situations where a bad decision led to negative consequences and unnecessary expenses for taxpayers. And this includes situations outside the taxpayer’s competence, as well as simply doing nothing, or ignoring the issue. So in protecting yourself, finding a qualified US tax professional with adequate cross-border tax expertise and experience is a great place to start!

That’s where I come in. Knowing the facts, and how to safely and efficiently navigate the system, can make the difference between making the right or wrong choice, compliance and non-compliance… and some hefty penalties. I specialize in U.S. tax law and with over 16 years’ experience practicing in this field, I have seen some precarious situations – and come to the rescue of many clients.

My clients can also benefit from attorney-client privilege, a particular advantage to those who find themselves non-compliant and financially exposed and who want to understand their options before committing to certain procedural alternatives that may be available to them to resolve their tax issues.
