NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - October 14, 2009) - David Gannaway, director in Marks Paneth & Shron's Litigation and Corporate Financial Advisory Services Group, has published an article in the September 2009 issue of Financial Fraud Law Report, advising both taxpayers and their professional counsel on best approaches to disclosing their offshore holdings.

In the face of an ongoing revenue drive by the U.S. government and overseas banks now revealing the names of U.S. account holders, it is critical that U.S. taxpayers get smart guidance on disclosing their offshore holdings to the IRS.

In the article, Mr. Gannaway:

  • Discusses how professionals can take the lead in guiding their clients toward legitimate tax minimization and away from fraud.


  • Provides guidelines for taxpayers on identifying the best advisors for the challenging disclosure process.
