Tax
Tax law is known for its complexity and extensiveness. Numerous amendments, ever-changing tax breaks, and international aspects make it challenging to interpret the provisions correctly. If that were not enough, taxpayers should also be aware of discrepancies between the approach of Polish tax authorities and administrative courts on many tax-related issues, as they may be contradictory in key matters.
Experts in this field must be familiar with tax regulations, able to interpret their intricacies, be aware of current positions of tax authorities, and assist their clients in understanding their tax obligations and safely navigate through dynamically changing regulations.
That is why our experts, while providing advisory services, focus particularly on the client’s needs, their natural inclination towards risk-taking, and the realities of modern business transactions, always taking into account the specificity of the industry in which they operate.
Theoretical knowledge of tax law is necessary but insufficient to ensure clients an adequate level of tax security. Our tax advisors and consultants are practitioners with experience in analysing precedent cases, interpreting tax authorities’ rulings, and court positions. Such analyses allow for a better understanding of how specific regulations should be applied in particular situations.
Lawyers specializing in tax law advise on various areas including CIT (Corporate Income Tax), PIT (Personal Income Tax), VAT (Value Added Tax), MDR (Mandatory Disclosure Rules), local taxes, and transfer pricing. They also assist in navigating the complex realities of international tax law and indicate the tax implications of reorganizational processes, including cross-border transactions. If a company’s situation requires verification that all tax obligations have been fulfilled correctly, the client will find appropriate support. Our experts also represent clients before tax authorities, in legal proceedings, and participate in tax and customs audits.
