Advisory

Tax decisions have a direct impact on competitiveness, costs, investments, business structures, and the overall viability of commercial operations.

We advise companies, investors, and individuals on the tax implications of their day-to-day activities and strategic transactions, delivering solutions that combine tax efficiency, regulatory compliance, and risk mitigation.

Our approach begins with a thorough understanding of each client’s business model and objectives, enabling us to identify opportunities, structure transactions, and anticipate potential risks while promoting legal certainty and long-term value creation.

Key Areas of Practice:

• advisory on federal, state, and municipal taxation applicable to business activities and specific transactions;

Our practice is complemented by advisory services on individual taxation, estate and succession planning, and wealth structuring, with the objective of preserving, organizing, and facilitating the transfer of assets in the most efficient manner.

Tax Litigation

Tax disputes may have a significant impact on cash flow, competitiveness, investment decisions, and business continuity. For this reason, we approach every dispute from a strategic perspective, considering not only the legal merits of the case but also its financial, operational, and reputational implications for our clients.

In addition to representing clients in administrative and judicial proceedings, we view tax litigation as an important tool for recovering tax assets and preserving business competitiveness.

We advise our clients in defining the most appropriate strategy to challenge tax assessments or recover taxes unduly paid, evaluating the most suitable judicial or administrative measures, the associated risks, and their potential impact on the business.

We represent clients at all administrative and judicial levels, including before Brazil’s Superior Courts.

• defining strategies for the prevention and management of tax disputes;
• estimating potential economic benefits and assessing administrative and judicial measures;
• preparing defenses and appeals against tax assessments at all administrative and judicial levels;
• filing and conducting judicial actions aimed at recovering taxes and challenging the enforceability of tax claims;
• delivering oral arguments and appearing before administrative and judicial authorities whenever appropriate;
• negotiating settlements, tax settlement programs (transação tributária), and other tax regularization mechanisms;
• providing full case management through the conclusion of proceedings, including the enforcement phase and the recovery of recognized tax credits.
