We advise domestic and foreign companies on tax and customs law, including assistance in complex cross-border M&A transactions, social contributions issues, international business tax consulting, tax planning and assistance in creating structures for import and export transactions.
The practice also focuses on advice to private clients (individuals), especially in relation to investments held abroad, interacting with foreign advisors and lawyers, and national and foreign investment banks.
