Tax Fraud
Tax fraud, especially by big corporations, costs the federal government enormous amounts of much needed revenue every year. The Internal Revenue Service estimates that the U.S. government loses $312 billion to $353 billion every year in unpaid taxes—a loss born by families across the country.
With the help of former Commissioner of Internal Revenue Margaret (Peggy) Milner Richardson, Baron & Budd is committed to pursuing the country’s biggest tax evaders and lessening the burden on U.S. taypayers. Baron & Budd and Peggy Richardson have established an ongoing case-specific co-counsel relationship to represent persons who blow the whistle on federal tax fraud. Clients who choose to take advantage of this alliance will have the benefit of Peggy’s expertise and experience in federal tax law and tax fraud as well as the extensive resources and legal experience provided by Baron & Budd.

“I’m been impressed with Baron & Budd’s commitment to fighting corporate fraud and wrongdoing in a number of arenas, and I’m excited about working with the firm to fight fraud in an area I know so well and have devoted my career to,” says Peggy.
Baron & Budd and Peggy Richardson, through the co-counsel agreement, will work with whistleblowers to bring claims under the Tax Relief and Health Care Act to recover the money owed to our federal government by major tax evaders. We are proud to stand with these individuals who have such an important role to play in fighting corporate tax fraud.
