      Get a BBA with an Accounting concentration or a BS Accounting [it depends on your undergrad school's programs]. Either will do.

  • Specifically, what are the unique job functions which separate one category of professional from the other? Does the attorney file tax returns? Does the accountant keep up with the tax laws? Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks.

      I'm pretty sure a tax accountant would be the one to work with the numbers and file your taxes for you and stuff like that. A tax attorney would be the one to represent you in court if ever you had an issue with the IRS. Of course a tax accountant will need to keep up with the tax laws since they are filing your paperwork for you... they have to know when the law changes so they know how to complete and file the forms. A Tax attorney isn't likely to be completing your tax forms unless it's sort of a hybrid tax accountant/attorney... ordinarily a tax attorney will help you deal with the court system regarding your tax matter where as a tax accountant will help you deal with your money and help you to file with the IRS.

  • I am considering becoming a tax attorney. I know that you need a 4 year degree in something like accounting, but I'm unsure of what graduate work you need..such as master's of accountancy program, law school, some other grad school i'm not mentioning?...and also does it help much to be a CPA? Thanks

      In order to become an attorney you need to attend Law School. Law School requires an undergraduate degree in any major you choose, although in your case it might be beneficial to major in accounting or finance, but thats up to you. Most law school programs last 3 years. In the first year you take all of your general classes that everyone has to take. The second and third years are when you can specialize and take more elective classes such as tax law. Law schools tend to be very selective in their admission process. You have to have a good score on your LSAT (Law School Admissions Test), a good GPA and good letters of recommendation. As far as pay in concerned, depending on the caliber of school you attended and the type of law firm, you can expect to start out at $55k-100k + If you are still interested I suggest you check out a book called "Law School Confidential". It has a lot of great information and really helped me out. Good luck to you.

  • After 3 years as an Accounting Major, I have decided that I want to use my accounting degree towards becoming a Tax Attorney. Only problem is, I don't know if I would have to study law before taking the LSAT exam. Or the procedure I could take in studying for the LSAT's if i don't get the chance to study law before I take the exam. Can anyone tell me the procedure towards becoming a tax attorney? Also could anyone tell me the procedure in the USA ( New York) as well as in England? Thank You!!!

      The LSAT tests logical reasoning skills. It has nothing to do with law. I would recommend you take a practice test to see where you stand and what you need to do to get the kind of score necessary to obtain admission to the law schools you wish to attend. You should note that a law degree does not allow nearly the same kind of specialization as an undergraduate major. All lawyers graduate with the same degree and can technically practice in any field. You specialize (to the limited extent possible) through course selection and jobs/internships. Make sure you are willing to sit through the rest of law school and deal with the legal job market before you make any serious decisions.
