What is a tax lawyer?
A tax lawyer is a lawyer admitted to a bar whose practice focuses on tax law. They advise clients before a decision is made (choice of tax regime, organization of personal wealth, corporate transaction), draft the corresponding opinions and legal documents, then assist and defend them in tax audits and litigation, from the response to the tax authorities through to an appeal before the tax court. Like every lawyer, a tax lawyer is bound by professional secrecy and sets fees in a written agreement with the client.
