Better yet get a TAX attorney. I had a mediation go litigated-- H had MAJOR bucks. (The settlement had a lump sum payment prior to going litigated but we had characterized it as a division of CP. A BIG lump sum.) He hired a CERTIFIED Family Law attorney. Now he is in hot water with the IRS and there is a malpractice suit pending. The IRS took penalties off the table as H acted on advice of counsel. TAX ATTORNEY,
