A Fayette County woman has been indicted on more than 30 fraud-related charges in federal court after she allegedly helped clients make more than half a million dollars in false tax claims.

Tiffany Williams faces 31 counts of aiding and assisting in the preparation and presentation of a false and fraudulent return, state, or other document, according to an indictment from the United States Eastern District Court.

Court documents say Williams established R2W Investments LLC, which operated under the name Quality Tax Services, which was located in Fayette County.
