I started my carrer as a broker, investment advisor during my career I ended up doing a lot tax work form my clients. I became interested in tax law because tax issues touched every aspect of my client's lives.. I felt I could help my clients more if I became a tax attorney. I quit my full time job and enrolled on law school.. As I was helping tax clients in my law practice, I realized that in addition to tax problems my clients often had problems with debt. I started to do bankruptcies now my practice is evenly split between resolving tax issues and helping clients through bankruptcy.. I have found that there is great synergy between bankruptcy law and tax law. Bankruptcy law allows a taxpayers to resolve their tax issues on better terms that the taxpayer would get outside of bankruptcy.. Bankruptcy in certain instances will allow a taxpayer to discharge penalties or pay back unsecured tax debt for "pennies on the dollar.". I do not consider my practice to be solely bankruptcy or solely tax law but a practice utilizing bankruptcy law and tax law to help individuals and businesses resolve their financial problems.
