I only want to do transactional work for corporations and such
would I be able to land a salaried Buy Xenical pills job doing purely transactional work..or should I just consider a new field considering my fear of public speaking?
You can limit your practice to transactional work and refer clients to someone else if they need to go to court, but many complex tax claims wind up in court, especially for corporations.
Most tax attorneys never see the interior of a courtroom.
It is possible…not all transactions go smoothly, after all.
It is possible that any kind of attorney, including tax attorneys, may be required to appear before a court.
For example, in the United States, a tax attorney could have to argue a case in the United States Tax Court.
There are certain legal jobs with that require lots of court appearances, and there are certain legal jobs that don’t require much. I would recommend you find and talk to some people who are currently working as tax attorneys and ask them about the job.
