Never Smile at a Crocodile

You have never read a tax book like this! A companion piece to The TaxMan is Watching (Harper Collins Canada, 2008), Never Smile at a Crocodile captures the spirit of adventure that inspired a young and fearless lawyer to devote his practice years to tax. Paul DioGuardi, tax lawyer and accomplished teller of tales, shares adventures of a life which proves that tax, contrary to the popular misconception, is anything but dull. His anecdotes are intermingled with insights and advice on tax issues of relevance to all taxpayers. In 48 years of practice, Paul has experienced the best and worst of the Canada Revenue Agency from both sides of the smiling crocodile’s jaws. From the inside looking out, as a special investigator at the CRA and then Department of Justice Counsel for the CRA; and from the taxpayer’s point of view, as Senior Tax Counsel at DioGuardi Tax Law, a national tax litigation law firm with offices in Toronto and Ottawa. The DioGuardi Tax Law’s library of case files are unequalled in the practice of Canadian taxpayer resolutions. If you thought tax was only for accountants, this book will change your mind.
