Tax Controversy
The current tax climate has created a challenging tax environment. Enterprises and high net worth individuals find themselves increasingly subject to challenge on tax matters resulting in a considerable rise in the numbers of audits, adjustments and disputes. Our Tax Controversy and Litigation Team is well positioned to help businesses and high net worth individuals exposed to tax controversies.
Defending your interests
Our goal is to provide you with unmatched and customized support across all direct tax, indirect tax and tax-related controversies and disputes with the tax authorities. Our overall approach to tax controversy is based on strategic objectives – understanding how tax authorities approach litigation matters to develop a winning case and recognizing settlement opportunities if and when they arise.
How can we help?
Tax controversy is a means to an end, with that end being the satisfactory resolution of an important issue related to taxes (whether domestic or multi-jurisdictional) while limiting the reputational risk impact. You can count on our assistance with:
