Tax Controversy – when tax matters turn contentious

Where a tax assessment is unlawful or the findings of a formal audit report cannot be sustained, a clear strategy and experienced representation make the difference. As an interdisciplinary firm of tax advisors and lawyers, we support companies, organisations and private individuals at every stage of the tax dispute process – from the tax audit through to out-of-court settlement and litigation.

The analysis of tax assessments and formal audit reports is the starting point for every subsequent stage: drafting written objections, filing appeals, providing technical assistance in the adversarial procedure with the tax authorities and conducting the defence before the competent Italian tax courts. We also assess, from a strategic perspective, the use of pre-litigation settlement procedures and alternative forms of dispute resolution.
