Tax disputes

Our approach

Each case is a unique challenge for us. We do not operate based on templates – we analyze the context, business needs, and risks to propose solutions best suited to the client’s situation. Our advice is transparent, pragmatic, and based on collaboration between our tax, litigation, and fiscal-criminal law teams.

Thanks to our experience working with companies across various industries – from manufacturing and IT to the financial sector – we are able to anticipate the actions of authorities and respond proactively. We are accessible, committed, and focused on one goal: effective protection of our clients’ interests.

For whom?

Our support is directed at companies of all sizes – from SMEs to large capital groups and publicly listed entities. We assist businesses facing tax and customs-fiscal audits, tax proceedings, and litigation.

We also support entrepreneurs who wish to secure their tax position (e.g., by obtaining an individual tax ruling), minimize tax risks, or recover overpaid taxes. Our advice is comprehensive and tailored to the specifics of the industry and the client’s individual situation.

There are fewer tax audits, but they are increasingly well prepared – officials often know what they are looking for before they even cross the company's doors. That is why it is not only documentation that counts, but also a strategy for action from the very first day of operation.
