It is common for tax lawyers to work as consultants, and many tax lawyers plan and prevent taxation rather than litigate cases. Since tax law is a complex and highly specialized legal area, you should always try to find a tax lawyer that is specializing in your particular issue. A tax lawyer specializing in capital gain tax might not be a suitable choice if you need help with payroll and employment taxes and vice versa. Other areas of expertise for tax lawyers are state and federal income tax, gift tax law, corporate taxation, property tax law, and tax enforcement. These areas will frequently overlap; estate planning will for instance require extensive knowledge about gift tax law and capital gain tax.
When you contact a tax lawyer it is important that you describe your issue as clear and concise as possible, in order for the tax lawyer to be able to determine whether this issue is within his or her area of expertise. The tax lawyer will for instance need to know whether you are currently experiencing problems with the IRS or if you are only interested in avoiding future tax problems by corporate or estate tax planning. Since tax law is a highly specialized area, it is common for bar associations to offer a practicing lawyer ways of becoming a certified legal specialist in tax law. Hiring a certified legal specialist is usually a good idea, especially if your tax issue is complex and not limited to basic tax planning.
