Tax Fraud

Ten specialised tax fraud lawyers

Armstrong Legal specialises in tax fraud and criminal prosecutions for tax evasion. Tax fraud and tax evasion are criminal offences which are prosecuted by the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecution in criminal courts. The consequences are in the same way criminal. A range of penalties can be imposed, including but not limited to fines and imprisonment.

Dealing with a criminal prosecution for tax fraud or tax evasion is a very different matter to conducting an audit or being assessed by the tax office. It is a criminal issue and you need criminal experts to deal with it.

This is a highly specialised field of law and very few lawyers have both criminal law and tax law experience. Our team of ten specialised lawyers includes:

• A former ATO lawyer trained in tax prosecutions;
• A former barrister of 25 years;
• An author of a criminal law textbook;
• A lawyer who has had articles published in tax journals;
• A number of lawyers who have also completed accounting and business degrees.

This means that you will be dealing with a team of lawyers who understand the tax system, the workings of the ATO and are experienced in the court room.

Tax fraud matters are complex and you need the right lawyer to act for you.
