IRS INVESTIGATIONS

SAGE CAN FORESEE POTENTIAL CRIMINAL PROBLEMS HEADING TOWARD YOU.

When it comes to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), civil and criminal procedures for income tax, Payroll Protection Program (PPP), and money laundering matters. Sage Investigations is your best ally. With over 50 years of combined IRS Special Agent experience, we know the ins and outs of the IRS and have the experience and expertise necessary to efficiently and effectively follow the money in complex financial investigations. We have the means to help analyze financial data faster and less expensive, which will allow your attorney to better represent your interest.

We understand your fears and frustrations concerning the IRS. We will help to minimize your fears and frustrations. We offer a free 20-minute consultation to learn about your situation and determine if we can help you and your attorney. Once we know we can help you, we will identify the basic scope of the investigation and explain to you what is needed and why it is needed for you to have the best possible outcome with the IRS and avoid a possible prison sentence.

Once you secure our services, we will work under the attorney-client privilege with your attorney and confer with him or her to determine how to proceed. We help your attorney accumulate evidence to best defend you.

If you fall under the gaze of the Criminal Investigation Division of the IRS, they can approach you administratively or via a Grand Jury. Depending on the allegations being made, the process will be less intrusive if it is administrative in nature. If the investigation is Grand Jury related, the potential for the execution of a search warrant is increased. With a search warrant, the government will take over your home and office, seize your records and image your computers to preserve any evidence of wrongdoing.

Your attorney will need identical records to defend you. Therefore, you must initially have your computers imaged, and your attorney will negotiate with the IRS to access the paper records seized.
