Discussions may help lessen financial consequences and close the case under the most favorable terms.

What is the difference between a tax advisor and a tax lawyer?
A tax advisor and a tax lawyer have complementary roles, but they operate in different areas and serve distinct purposes.
A tax advisor, like French Tax Online, assists taxpayers and business owners in managing their tax affairs efficiently.
Their experience helps legally reduce taxes, file tax returns correctly, and implement optimal tax planning.
Their approach is risk-avoidant, aiming to minimize audit risks.

They are entitled to represent clients in court and plead before tax courts.
Their role becomes indispensable when administrative talks break down and judicial action is needed.
