Business Trust Fund Penalty & Tax Assessment Attorneys

The federal government (IRS) and the Minnesota Department of Revenue (MDR) have increased the numbers of  auditors investigating employers whom they suspect are not withholding an appropriate amount of payroll taxes or fraudulently dipping into the payroll tax trust fund for business or personal purposes.

If you have received a notice that your Minnesota business is under investigation, it is important to speak with one of the experienced business tax attorneys at Pridgeon & Zoss, PLLC. The law is clear that the bill for the proper amount of employment taxes owed, plus interest and penalties, can be assessed against the “responsible persons,” including owners, officers, managers, and other employees involved with payroll matters.

From our offices in Edina and St. Anthony, Minnesota, the business tax lawyers at Pridgeon & Zoss, PLLC, advise and represent Minnesota business owners. Do not delay responding to a federal or state tax notice. Contact Pridgeon & Zoss, PLLC, for a no-cost initial consultation with an experienced tax law attorney right away.

Our lawyers’ experience in business tax disputes and payroll tax withholding matters includes:

  • Responding to IRS notices and MDR notices
  • Corporate tax litigation and appeals
  • Trust fund assessments
  • Minnesota sales and use taxes
  • Independent contractor and self-employment taxes
  • Innocent spouse relief
