Attorney Shobha Lizaso of the Florida Healthcare Law Firm has over 10 years of experience and serves as counsel for several non-profit organizations.

DELRAY BEACH, FL, USA, April 24, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- “Too often, clients try to fly under the radar,” explains Jeff Cohen, , who is board certified as a specialist in healthcare law and leads the Florida Healthcare Law Firm with over 30 years of experience. “And the truth is that they may be able to do that but as the years pass, the chances that the non-profit will be caught by the IRS grows exponentially.”

“There has been a growing trend in the substance abuse rehabilitation industry to provide services through a non-profit, tax-exempt organization. Unfortunately, there is also a growing trend relating to IRS audits of non-profits,” says Lizaso.

Lizaso is a very well rounded attorney with deep experience as a litigator form her time at one of Florida’s largest law firms where she worked on the prosecution of financial fraud. She has a strong financial background, acquired from her previous career as a forensic accountant at top national and regional C.P.A. firms. She also earned the Certified Fraud Examiner credential and she serves as an arbitrator, rendering binding opinions for a government regulator.

Ms. Lizaso earned a Juris Doctor from University of Miami School of Law and also serves as legal counsel or advisor to several non-profit organizations and is founder of the Captive Animal Research & Enrichment (C.A.R.E.) Society, a 501(c)3 non-profit that focuses on enriching the lives of animals in captivity.
“She’s not only a terrific corporate and securities lawyer. She spends a lot of time protecting those who protect others,” says Cohen.
