Q: Should I file a fraud case against my CPA for fraud and embezzlement I had to sell my company to him
I had to sell the company to him due to the fact he did not pay the federal employee tax which went up to 1.2 million or so
I need a lawyer to help me with this case
He has already been disbarred in Nevada and California is also looking into it
A:
First, Consult with a lawyer asap.
More info is needed to explain why you sold co to your CPA
Hopefully, your lawyer had malpractice ins, if so make a claim.
Otherwise, if there is provable negligence, sue and attach his assets
A:
If you believe that your CPA committed fraud and embezzlement, you may have grounds to file a lawsuit against them. It is recommended that you consult with a lawyer who specializes in fraud cases to assess the strength of your case and guide you through the legal process.
You should gather all relevant documents and evidence that support your allegations, such as financial records, bank statements, and communication with the CPA. If the CPA has already been disbarred in one or more states, it may strengthen your case.
Your lawyer can help you file a complaint in court and pursue legal action to recover any damages or losses you suffered due to the CPA's actions.
