What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Pennsylvania
I received a settlement paymet in 2007. While I was working for this company I became very ill and my doctor removed me from the job. He felt my job was to blame for the illness. I resigned under doctors advise. After a time I sued the company for what they had done to me. I was granted some of the money although not what my lawyer going after. He told me in the beginning that this was more of a medical case. I thought it was more of a discrimination case. When the case was settled he told me to contact him and he would send me a letter to send in with my taxes that the settlement would not be taxed. This lawer was upset that we did not get more and was blaming my statements and my doctor. We had words and that was it until I called him about the tax letter. I received the letter and in it said 50% taxed and 50% not tax. I called him and was told I am never happy and should be happy I got what I got and hew hung up on me. No contact since. Did taxes according to letter. I recently was told that at the top of the letter it is in his opinion.
Can I redo my 2007 taxes based on medical with no taxes having to be paid. I have someone doing my taxes this year and was told if I could get something in writing he would redo my taxes for 2007.
Did I have to use this letter at all?
Can my 2007 tax return be redone?
