Experience

Tax & Customs

Tax planning protects commercial decisions before transactions take place.

How We Help

Corporate & Transactional Tax

Tax consequences are set at the moment a transaction is structured, not afterwards.

We advise on the corporate and transactional tax aspects of commercial dealings, structuring transactions to reflect their intended tax treatment.

International Tax & Cross-Border Structuring

Cross-border activity brings more than one tax system into the same transaction.

We advise on international tax structuring, cross-border arrangements and the tax considerations affecting multi-jurisdictional operations.

VAT & Indirect Taxes

Indirect taxes apply whether or not a transaction anticipates them.

We advise on VAT and other indirect taxes, including their application to commercial transactions and ongoing business operations.

Transfer Pricing & Tax Due Diligence

Related-party arrangements carry tax consequences that require their own documentation.

We advise on transfer pricing policy and documentation, and conduct tax due diligence in connection with transactions and corporate restructurings.

Customs & International Trade

Goods crossing a border carry legal obligations along with them.

We advise on customs treatment, valuation and the legal requirements affecting the international movement of goods.

Tax Controversy & Administrative Proceedings

A tax position is tested only when it is challenged.

We represent clients in tax audits, administrative proceedings and disputes with tax authorities, from initial inquiry through resolution.
