What To Know About Tax Evasion Charges And Their Consequences

Tax evasion is the illegal act of not paying or underpaying taxes that you owe. It is a federal white collar charge that differs from tax fraud charges, which involve falsifying information on your tax returns. Tax evasion can carry severe penalties, including:

• Fines of up to $250,000
• Prison time of up to five years

These consequences underscore the importance of having a skilled criminal defense lawyer by your side who can provide a robust defense.
