- Wrongful DeathCooper & Friedman together with attorney Greg Simms are representing the Estate of D’Juantez Mitchell, a young African American man who was fatally shot by an officer of the Louisville Metro Police Department in May 2019. The Department concluded that the officer acted properly, however, information about the shooting uncovered to date suggests that the Police Investigation was incomplete and in some cases contradictory. Cooper & Friedman and Mr. Simms have filed a wrongful death lawsuit on behalf of Mr. Mitchell’s estate and 2 young children.

- FraudWe’ve all heard rumors of jail time if you commit tax fraud, but at the end of the day, you shouldn’t have to worry about that. If you accidentally fill in the wrong spot or miscalculate, you won’t be jailed! The important thing to remember is that tax fraud is a very deliberate act, not a ruse by the government to incarcerate the everyday man doing their best.

- Bankruptcy
- ForeclosureAs defined by the IRS (Internal Revenue Service), a tax lien is, “the government’s legal claim against your [individual or business] property when you neglect or fail to pay a tax debt.” Basically, it’s the first step of a levy – which can be anything from a foreclosure to asset collection – that grants the government first access to assets should a debt remain unpaid. Because there are often other lenders or creditors also looking for the payment of a debt, a tax lien acts as a “first dibs” that has much more legal weight as compared to who gets the front passenger seat on a road trip.
