Tampa Tax Attorney

Frost Law's Tampa, FL office serves clients throughout the area with a team of tax, business, and estate attorneys, plus accountants and other professionals. This page covers a few of the practice areas handled here, including IRS tax issues, estates and trusts, and business mergers and acquisitions, among other tax matters. Please contact us if you have any questions or would like to schedule a confidential consultation with a Tampa tax attorney or other professional.

IRS Tax Issues

IRS audits often begin with a fairly small request, maybe a handful of documents, but where the case goes from there depends on what a reviewer turns up. A tax attorney in Tampa can respond to what's being asked, push back on findings that don't hold up, and carry the matter into appeals if the audit doesn't resolve in your favor.

Once a balance is assessed, the IRS has a few ways to collect it, including liens and levies, or a taxpayer can look into an Offer in Compromise to settle the debt for less than what's owed. This settlement isn't guaranteed, so we'll review your income, assets, and expenses closely to gauge if you might qualify.

International Tax Controversy

Many Tampa clients hold accounts, investments, or property overseas, and a surprising number don't realize that simply maintaining a foreign account can trigger its own reporting requirement, separate from anything actually owed in tax. Missing an FBAR or Form 8938 filing, even on an account that never generated taxable income, can lead to real penalties once the IRS or a foreign bank flags it. When that happens, we represent clients through the audit or dispute that follows, and where the facts support it, help weigh whether coming forward through a voluntary disclosure program beats waiting for the IRS to find the account on its own.

Estates and Trusts

A will, a trust, or simply a plan for who manages your affairs, these are all things that are easy to keep putting off, yet having them in place tends to spare a family real time and expense down the road. An estate attorney in Tampa can help make sure these documents actually reflect your wishes and hold up if they're ever challenged, whether that's about avoiding probate, protecting assets, or making sure the right people are named to carry out your plan.

State Tax Credits

Businesses and individuals often qualify for state and local tax credits without realizing it. SALT cap workarounds, for example, let certain pass-through entities pay state tax at the entity level rather than the individual level, helping some owners work around the federal cap on state and local tax deductions where it applies. A Tampa tax lawyer at Frost Law can review whether an election like this makes sense given how your business is structured.

Florida also has some tax history worth knowing about, including a tax on intangible assets like stocks and bonds that Florida residents once had to pay before lawmakers repealed it years ago. Clients moving to Florida from a state that still taxes this kind of property, or those holding assets in more than one state, sometimes assume Florida's current rules mirror what they're used to elsewhere, which isn't always accurate.

Beyond this, a range of local tax credits exist at the county and municipal level, often tied to things like job creation or investment in certain areas, and sorting through which ones actually apply to your situation is usually where the real savings show up.

Business Mergers & Acquisitions

Buying or selling a business through an asset purchase carries different tax consequences than doing it through a stock purchase, and the gap between the two only shows up once you look past the sale price to who owes what and what gets depreciated going forward. That analysis matters just as much when a deal involves an insolvent company, where debt treatment and the fate of remaining assets add another layer to work through.

Frost Law's Tampa team gets involved before any of these structures are locked in, whether the deal itself is shaping up as a joint venture, a straightforward acquisition, or another arrangement entirely, so the tax consequences are accounted for rather than discovered after closing. 

Bankruptcy

Struggling under debt that keeps compounding doesn't mean the same bankruptcy chapter fits every situation. A bankruptcy attorney in Tampa can go over your income, assets, and the kind of debt you're carrying to help sort out whether Chapter 7, Chapter 13, or Chapter 11 fits your situation best.

Businesses with more complicated debt sometimes look at Subchapter V of Chapter 11 instead, a faster and more affordable version of a standard filing aimed at smaller companies. A Tampa bankruptcy lawyer can help you sidestep filing under the wrong chapter, since that mistake tends to be costly to fix later.
