Tax Litigation

When we can help.

Challenging a tax demand requires analysis of its origin, its legal basis, and the documents supporting the taxpayer's position. Our work covers case assessment and the pursuit of available defenses in administrative or court proceedings.

• Analyzing notices of violation, tax assessments, and demands.
• Preparing challenges and appeals in administrative tax proceedings.
• Assessing court measures concerning tax demands, collection, and rights.
• Organizing the defense in tax enforcement proceedings and monitoring subsequent developments.

How we work.

From the tax demand to the defense strategy.

The analysis considers the tax, period, origin of the demand, authority's reasoning, and available documents. These elements guide the examination of facts, the tax base, liability, and other relevant legal issues.

Strategy also addresses the effects of collection and the relationship between administrative and court measures. Tax and accounting information is integrated with the legal analysis, respecting each professional's responsibilities.

Administrative tax defense is part of this tax practice and connects with Administrative Proceedings. Findings from disputes may also inform preventive Tax Advisory reviews, according to the needs identified.
