The Firm has a long tradition representing local and foreign companies on tax matters, providing valuable advice in connection with the performance of their obligations before the Government and on procedures to achieve tax efficiency. 

 

Our Law firm formed one of the most experienced teams due to more than one hundred years of history and legacy. Throughout its history, the Firm always had the privilege to have renowned lawyers in this field, such as João Guilherme Sauer and Marcus Francisco.

 

Our assistance includes litigation against the tax authorities, both on administrative or judicial proceedings and on tax advice regarding specific projects, including devising tax planning, assistance in obtaining tax incentives, identifying tax benefits, and developing transactions with a low tax impact. 

 

We have solid experience in matters related to the energy industry, including the renewable energy segments, representing clients at all stages of the industry chain, including energy generation, transmission, commercialization, and distribution. 

 

With a vast knowledge of federal, state, and municipal taxation, the Firm advises clients on concession contracts, consortia, generation, transmission, commercialization and distribution of electric power, wind power and solar energy, concentrating its focus on ICMS (Value-Added Tax), tax planning of platform construction projects, imports and exports, among others.
