Anthony was creative in helping me resolve some past issues in a way that they never became a problem so that is greatly appreciated and I feel confident I can now enjoy my retirement with peace of mind. Thanks for that.

Ken B.
I came to Anthony Verni with FBAR issues. I was not sure what to expect and felt that I was going to be put in a difficult position financially as well as legally. My fears were unfounded and I was very satisfied with his professionalism and the outcome of my case.

Douglas R.
Anthony’s help with Swift & Secure Systems Inc., CheckWare Workstations LLC and my personal taxes have been of great value. Since moving to Florida (and my Connecticut Accountant retiring) I have tried various other methods of keeping the accounting and taxes under control.

Phil Y
I would like to thank Anthony N. Verni. Mr. Verni has successfully represented us before the Internal Revenue Service. We had foreign bank accounts that we inadvertently didn’t report and we were subject to steep penalties. As a result his efforts, the FBAR penalties were waived by the IRS.
Thank You

Frequently Asked
Questions

What’s the difference between offshore tax evasion and tax avoidance?
Tax avoidance refers to using legal methods to reduce your tax burden, such as deductions or credits. Offshore tax evasion, on the other hand, involves intentionally concealing foreign income or assets to avoid paying U.S. taxes. The former is lawful; the latter is a federal crime with serious consequences.

What are the criminal penalties for offshore tax evasion?
- Up to 5 years in federal prison for tax evasion
- Up to 14 years for related money laundering charges
- Fines up to $250,000 for individuals (or $500,000 for corporations)
These penalties are often combined with back taxes, interest, civil penalties, and asset forfeiture.

How does the IRS detect hidden offshore accounts?
Most people don’t realize the IRS starts investigating long before they reach out to you. They use:
- John Doe summons to gather information from foreign banks
- International data-sharing agreements (under FATCA)
- Whistleblower reports
Advanced AI and data analysis to flag irregularities in filings
You may already be on their radar without knowing it.

Can I avoid criminal charges if I come forward voluntarily?
In certain cases, yes, but only if the IRS hasn’t started investigating. The IRS Voluntary Disclosure Program allows qualifying taxpayers to come clean and avoid prosecution. However, eligibility depends on timing, truthfulness, and completeness. We assess your case to determine the safest path forward.

Is there a statute of limitations for offshore tax evasion?
Civil tax matters involving offshore accounts typically carry a 6-year statute of limitations, but for criminal tax fraud, there’s no time limit. The IRS can initiate charges years later if it suspects willful misconduct. The sooner you address the issue, the better your options.
That’s why it’s critical to act early. We are an Individual Law firm; Our tax evasion defense attorney can review your situation, protect your legal rights, and help you avoid charges that may arise long after the filing deadline.

Do I have to report small foreign accounts under $10,000?
Yes, if the combined value of all your foreign accounts exceeded $10,000 at any time during the year, you’re required to file an FBAR. Even if individual accounts seem small, the total balance determines reporting obligations. Failing to report can still lead to hefty fines or investigations.

What should I do if an IRS agent contacts me about offshore accounts?
Do not make statements, provide documents, or attempt to explain.
Contact an experienced offshore tax attorney immediately. You have the right to remain silent and the right to legal counsel. Anything you say, no matter how innocent, can be used against you. Let our tax evasion lawyer handle all communication with the IRS on your behalf.
