What an Tax Attorney can do for Colorado taxpayers
A tax attorney in Colorado is admitted to the Colorado bar and authorized to provide legal advice on all Colorado tax matters, in addition to federal tax representation. Tax attorneys are typically engaged for matters with litigation risk — an IRS criminal investigation, a US Tax Court petition, a federal-court refund claim, complex estate planning, or large-dollar voluntary disclosures.
For routine return preparation, a tax attorney is usually overkill; engage a CPA or Enrolled Agent for that work and reserve the attorney for matters where attorney-client privilege, formal legal opinions, or court appearances are required.
