Tax Law
At Legal & Financial Practice MX, we transform tax complexity into clear decision-making. We design comprehensive and robust tax alternatives to optimize the tax burden without compromising efficiency or compliance, from preventive tax planning to the most complex contentious defense.
We provide advisory services in corporate restructurings, due diligence, compliance, transfer pricing, regulatory filings, tax refunds, and defense before tax authorities and federal courts, as well as in conclusive agreements and complaints, supported by a solid legal framework and traceable evidence that ensure compliance and cash flow impact.
We combine legal judgment with the interpretation of regulations, the design and documentation of structures, the management of consultations, and defense when applicable, together with rigorous accounting and tax execution; tax calendars and filings, CFDI controls and electronic accounting, the Tax Mailbox (Buzón Tributario), VAT/IEPS policies, and the preparation of files for tax credits and refunds.
