Tax

We specialize in tax consulting related to direct, indirect, customs, social security taxes, and financial transactions, encompassing advisory on everyday business and personal matters as well as assessments of the tax impacts of complex business structures (both local and international), transfer pricing, international taxation, corporate reorganizations, and family estate/succession planning.

Our team also possesses high specialization in tax litigation, both administrative and judicial, building extensive experience over the years in defining procedural strategies for defenses against tax claims and recovering tax credits, playing a significant role in leading cases in both administrative and judicial spheres.

Both practices—advisory and contentious—are strongly supported by our team’s solid knowledge and experience in corporate accounting, particularly concerning the tax impacts arising from international accounting standards (IFRS). Our specialization and deep technical knowledge of accounting regulations constitute a strategic differential in our contemporary tax practice involving IFRS, from both advisory and litigation perspectives.
