OUR FEATURED SPEAKER
Kevin Sweeney, Senior Counsel, Chamberlain Hrdlicka

Kevin is a former federal tax prosecutor. His practice focuses on high-stakes IRS audits, tax litigation, white-collar criminal defense, and corporate investigations for entities and individuals all over the world.

Before joining the Chamberlain Hrdlicka, Kevin was a trial attorney for the U.S. Department of Justice, Tax Division.

Kevin represents clients in IRS audits and civil tax litigation before the United States Tax Court, District Courts, and Court of Federal Claims. His skill set is especially suited for sensitive audits and litigation where penalty, fraud, or criminal issues could arise.

In addition to his position at the U.S. Department of Justice’s Tax Division, Kevin has served as a Special Assistant United States Attorney in the Districts of Colorado and the Eastern District of Virginia and as a prosecutor and appellate attorney in the United States Army Judge Advocate General’s (JAG) Corps. Kevin has investigated and litigated dozens of federal white-collar criminal cases throughout the country including tax evasion, tax preparer, employment tax, FBAR, money laundering, currency structuring, Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), and other financial fraud matters.

Kevin is a judge advocate (JAG) in the United States Army Reserve. He served on active duty from 2006-2010. Kevin deployed to Baghdad, Iraq in 2006 with the 4th Infantry Division where he advised commanders on criminal law issues and internal investigations into serious combat-related incidents.

As a JAG, Kevin litigated dozens of criminal cases and appeals.
