Worldwide US Tax Representation
International Tax Attorney for US Citizens Abroad
The United States taxes its citizens on worldwide income regardless of where they live. Our attorneys represent US expats, dual citizens, and foreign nationals with US tax obligations — in every country.
What We Handle
Core International Tax Issues
FBAR & FATCA
Foreign financial accounts must be reported annually. Penalties for willful non-filing can exceed the account balance.
PFIC Reporting
Most foreign mutual funds and ETFs are PFICs — triggering punitive US tax without proper elections.
Foreign Gifts & Inheritances
Gifts over $100,000 from foreign persons require Form 3520 filing — penalties apply even though no tax is owed.
Streamlined Disclosure
Non-willful non-filers can come into compliance with reduced or zero penalties through Streamlined procedures.
Expat Tax Returns
US citizens abroad must file US returns on worldwide income. The FEIE and foreign tax credits can minimize double taxation.
Criminal Voluntary Disclosure
For willful non-filers, the Voluntary Disclosure Program provides a path to compliance that avoids criminal prosecution.
