Practice Areas

Tax Law

Advisory services and litigation for tax decisions and disputes.

When we can help.

Tax issues affect contracts, transactions, and asset-related decisions. We combine preventive advice with dispute management, considering the taxes involved, available documentation, and each situation's economic and legal context.

  • Assessing the tax effects of a transaction or contractual relationship.
  • Clarifying questions about the interpretation and application of tax legislation.
  • Analyzing risks identified in an inspection or collection action.
  • Defining a strategy for an administrative or judicial dispute.

How we work.

01

Understanding the Transaction

Understanding the facts, documents, and responsibilities relevant to the tax analysis.

02

Risk Assessment

Examining interpretations, contingencies, and the effects of available legal alternatives.

03

Guidance for Decisions

Developing conclusions and recommendations based on the context presented and the agreed scope.

04

Dispute Management

Integrating tax analysis with the administrative or judicial defense strategy.

Connected preventive analysis and defense.

Tax Advisory examines obligations and the legal effects of transactions and decisions. Tax Litigation addresses demands, assessments, and disputes in administrative and court proceedings. Both draw on a shared understanding of the facts and relevant tax documentation.

An interpretive question may require preventive advice; a tax assessment calls for a specific analysis of available defenses. We distinguish these needs while preserving the connections between them.

Tax analysis connects with contract advice, governance, and risk management. Administrative tax proceedings are coordinated with Administrative Proceedings; issues reaching the STJ or STF are coordinated with our higher-court practice.
