Tax Fraud and Tax Evasion 15%

FL Sales Tax problems can start as an administrative matter, but a DOR Criminal Investigator can quickly take over your case. If this happens, it is critical that prior to the Investigator's final report being sent to the State’s Attorney Office, you find an experienced Sales Tax Attorney to lead your defense. Even with a CPA assisting you with the civil audit, they may not be aware of the indicators & procedures DOR follows to make your case become a criminal investigation very quickly.

Detail oriented and thorough! Gets results!

After closing my business I found myself in a jam with a very complicated and stressful IRS issue. Mr. Friedel went over my case in great detail and negotiated a very reasonable payment plan with the IRS. He further identified several other ways to help reduce this heavy burden. I highly recommend... this most excellent attorney!

Great Service

I am glad I hired Dan to address my IRS debt. He helped me in two ways. When I was experiencing financial difficulties, he was able to get my IRS tax debt into Currently Not Collectible status. Later, in better times, he negotiated an affordable installment agreement. I am very satisfied with the res...ults.

Highly Recommend Dan!

We hired Dan to handle a very complicated IRS problem. He worked diligently on our behalf. He communicates with you as if you are his only client. He is very responsive and always on top of your case. We owe over $80,000.00 in IRS Taxes and were about to be levied. Dan was able to work out a pay...ment plan with the IRS on our behalf, wherein we are now paying $900.00 per month as opposed to the previous installment plan set up by the IRS in excess of $2,500.00 per month. We could not be happier. He spent many hours on our case going at every angle you can imagine. He went above and beyond our expectations and did much more than what we had discussed in our initial consultation. You won't be sorry for hiring Dan for your IRS problems. He is also a very compassionate attorney, which is hard to find these days.

Sales Tax Decreased thanks to Daniel Friedel

i owed 36K in sales tax, Daniel Friedel got me down to 23K by negotiating with them and finding issues with the audit, between his fee and the negotiated decrease, i saved over 10k and he was able to get me to do monthly payments as well. thanks Daniel.

Knowledge of law and "intuition understanding" The surpreme defense. IRS.

An excellent 5 star rating should be a 6*. Daniel Friedel is a IRS tax specialist. How Blessed I found this intelligent representative in Alachua County. I thank his wife for staying here. I, a late filer was lost. And under the pressure of collections with the IRS. Daniel was able to put al...l in prospective and with hiring an accountant my long term issues were solved and he prevailed wonderfully with a final compromise and all was put to rest. Call him. It is better than a tranquilizer.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
