Tax Law

Legal insight to plan, optimise, and defend your tax position.

This practice area, structured within Archer & Associados, covers all types of legal advice on tax matters, including creative tax planning and support in structuring assets, provided to companies and individuals alike. Our lawyers provide advice and tax support in relation to Corporate Income Tax (IRC), Personal Income Tax (IRS), VAT (IVA), Municipal Property Tax (IMI), Property Transfer Tax (IMT), Stamp Duty, Excise Duties, and other taxes.


Our tax litigation team is especially well positioned to represent clients in administrative appeals, and in tax challenge or opposition proceedings, across all areas of Tax Law. In collaboration with our criminal law department, our lawyers also provide forensic representation in defending companies and individuals charged in tax-related administrative offence proceedings or criminal proceedings.


With regard to company acquisitions, we carry out the tax analysis of the target entity as part of due diligence and tax compliance procedures, structure the tax aspects of the acquisition transaction, and assist in setting up the acquiring vehicle (investment funds, private equity, real estate companies). We also work on the restructuring and reorganisation of corporate groups: mergers, demergers, asset contributions, share exchanges, restructuring of tax liabilities, and executive compensation plans (stock options).
