You will lose without this FREE information.

Here’s why.

This Book Contains ALL the Information You Need to Win in Tax Court.

People going to U.S. Tax Court generally think trials and courtrooms are where one talks about the law. They also generally know the law that concerns their case.

The problem is, Tax Court trials are not about the law. They are about the FACTS. The law speaks for itself. Or more accurately, the judge applies the law to the facts that you establish at trial.

But you never talk about the law before the facts are on the record! At best, raising questions of law before the trial will confirm for the court and your opponent that you don’t know what you’re doing.

At worst, you give your opponent the rope he needs to hang you.

To win in Tax Court you need to know how to present your facts and keep them in, and how to keep your opponent’s facts out.

You will eventually have to argue the law, but not before you have done battle with the IRS attorneys using the RULES, including:

• The Rules of the Court

• The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure

• The Federal Rules of Evidence

These rules have the force of law in the courtroom. Trial lawyers succeed and fail by them. Courtroom battles are over the admission and exclusion of evidence, not over the law.

By knowing this simple fact you know more than 99% of people going to Tax Court on their own!!! And the rules are not long or complicated. You can easily learn them and use them to your advantage.

Tax Court is a hostile environment with its own language and its own rules!

The natives are not there to help you. Their job is to extract every dollar they can from you and they are good at it. They are used to working with people who:

• don’t know what’s coming next

• don’t know the rules of the court or of procedure

• don’t know how to write legal documents

• don’t know how to do legal research

• don’t understand what’s going on in Tax Court

• don’t know what hit them when they lose
