    Hello, everyone. I have been accused of tax fraud. To be honest, I didn't know my accountants were committing any such acts, I've always been loyal to them and trusted them with all the company's money. And then it turns out that they didn't pay taxes using some kind of fraud. And now I have a huge tax debt to the state. Can you please tell me what I should do in such a situation? I'm from New York.

    Well first, you need to enlist the help of a lawyer who will gather all the evidence that in this situation is not your fault, but your employees of the financial department. This often happens when a business owner gives the reins of all accounts and payments to his accountants, and then it turns out that they all this time either did not pay taxes or stole money. In general, this situation is common. And you have to be very careful not to get caught in it. And if you have already been caught, I think you should contact the best tax fraud defense lawyer in New York https://arkadybukhlawfirm.com/.

    When I first started running my business, I also trusted my finance team completely and didn’t monitor tax filings closely. That turned out to be a big mistake. Situations like this show why Business Consulting is so important alongside legal help. A good consultant can review past records, identify where controls failed, and help rebuild proper systems so this doesn’t happen again while you work through the legal side.

    in this kind of situation in new york the main thing is to quickly hire a tax attorney and not talk to the irs without them. collect and save all correspondence with accounting, access to systems, who and when filed reports, and ask the lawyer to immediately request breakdowns of charges and penalties. when i was dealing with my accountant’s screw-ups, i distracted myself from the stress with megawheelgame.com then sweetbonanzashow.org and even icefishingonline.org instead of calmly pulling up statements and that only slowed down the process. at the same time, it’s worth doing an independent audit and setting up controls: separate roles, payment confirmations, monthly reconciliations, so this doesn’t happen again.
