Main areas of work of a tax lawyer

A lawyer at an enterprise takes on many tasks, from analyzing the client’s current financial situation to developing comprehensive strategies to optimize obligations.
The most important areas of work:

  • -

    A detailed analysis of the client’s financial and economic activities to identify potential risks and the possibility of reducing the tax burden.

  • -

    Development of a tax optimization strategy. This includes recommendations for changing the structure of the business, using available benefits, and revising the methods of accounting for income and expenses. For example, switching to a simplified taxation system can significantly reduce taxes for small businesses.

  • -

    Representation of client interests in fiscal authorities. For example, in disputes over tax assessments, during audits or to challenge penalties. A professional lawyer will help prepare all the necessary documents and arguments to defend the client’s position.

The work of a lawyer is aimed at solving emerging problems, as well as preventing possible risks through competent planning and consultation.

Tax risks for business

Tax risks are one of the main threats to the stability and financial security of a business. They can arise from various sources and have many consequences, affecting the current state of the company and its future.

External and internal sources of risks are distinguished:

  • External risks are often associated with changes in legislation, for example, when new taxes are introduced or the rates of existing ones are changed. External risks also include fluctuations in exchange rates, which may affect the size of the company's obligations to the state.
  • Internal risks arise due to errors or shortcomings in the company’s management system, as well as due to the use of dubious or illegal schemes to optimize taxes.

From a time perspective, a distinction is made between current and future risks. Current ones arise directly in the course of the company’s activities and require an immediate response. Forward risks are associated with actions that may lead to negative consequences in the future. For example, aggressive methods of tax optimization, which raise questions among fiscal authorities.

Consequences can also be financial or non-financial:

  • Financial consequences include additional taxes, fines and penalties, and refusal to refund VAT. These situations reduce the company's financial resources.
  • Non-financial consequences - blocking of current accounts, seizure of property, on-site inspections, bringing management to justice. These events are not directly related to financial losses, but they also seriously affect the activities of the enterprise.

There are also reputational risks associated with tax issues.

Violations of legislation, debts to fiscal authorities, and legal disputes seriously undermine the company’s business reputation. This may lead to the loss of customers or partners. If a company has problems with the Federal Tax Service, this makes it an unreliable counterparty, work with which can lead to questions from regulatory authorities.

Effective risk management is an important factor for the sustainability and prosperity of a business. But hiring a qualified tax lawyer is not always economically feasible. Therefore, an accountant, manager or other employee usually interacts with regulatory authorities.

It is difficult for a non-specialist to navigate all the nuances of the legislation, especially considering that the interpretations are ambiguous. Therefore, errors in this area often occur.

Outsourcing complex issues is the optimal solution for business. Lawyers will help at any stage, from advising on choosing a tax regime to solving problems that have already arisen. It is important that all actions will be carried out within the legal framework, for the safety of the customer and to increase his profit.

Advantages of legal advice

Professional advice can significantly reduce the risks associated with taxation and bring a number of benefits to the company. Firstly, a lawyer will help you competently organize accounting and tax accounting, ensuring its compliance with current legislation. This will avoid mistakes and minimize the likelihood of inspections and fines.

Secondly, a tax expert is able to develop strategies to optimize the tax burden using legal methods. This may be a transition to a more suitable tax regime, a reduction in the tax base, the use of benefits, deductions, restructuring or other methods.

In controversial situations with the tax authorities, a professional lawyer will take upon himself the representation of the company’s interests in the tax inspectorates and in court, the preparation of all necessary documents and arguments to defend the position of the enterprise. This increases the chances of a successful resolution of the dispute, and also allows company managers to focus on running the business without being distracted by legal intricacies.

Finally, regular consultations with a lawyer help the company to keep abreast of the latest changes in legislation and adapt to them in a timely manner, which also reduces risks and contributes to more efficient business conduct.
