TAX COUNSEL FOR COMPLEX INTERNATIONAL DISPUTES

Our tax lawyers have in-depth understanding of the complex challenges companies face when transacting business overseas. These companies are not only subject to U.S. tax laws, they must also comply with the rules and regulations of the local taxing authorities in the jurisdictions where they are conducting business. While some nations have executed tax treaties with the U.S. that effectively enable companies to avoid “double taxation,” many countries have not. As more companies establish and expand their international connections, the problem of double taxation for businesses is likely to increase. Additionally, with increased collaboration and information-sharing between the U.S. government and governments worldwide, enforcement efforts have been stepped up in many areas, including offshore bank account reporting, anti-money laundering and Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) violations.

The Internal Revenue Service has taken aggressive steps to identify and combat tax fraud and tax evasion arising out of offshore activities and foreign bank accounts. The IRS is actively investigating and prosecuting U.S. taxpayers who use offshore accounts and business entities to avoid and evade their tax obligations. In an effort to better uncover and crack down on undisclosed offshore accounts and other abusive and misleading activities, the IRS and the Department of Justice have joined forces and expanded cross-border information sharing with foreign governments and financial institutions across the globe. These efforts have led to stricter scrutiny and penalties for taxpayers who fail to file their required Foreign Bank and Financial Account Reports (FBARs) and report their offshore accounts and assets.
