Tax law
Legal Representation before the Tax Authority, Courts, and the Curia
Hungarian and EU tax regulations are becoming increasingly complex, while tax authorities apply ever more sophisticated methods for risk profiling and auditing taxpayers. A tax audit, an unfavorable administrative decision, or a tax enforcement proceeding poses serious financial and legal risks for our clients. Our law firm provides full-scope legal representation in matters before the tax authorities and in judicial proceedings. While we do not offer direct tax advisory services, we work closely with our clients’ tax advisors and accountants to ensure that both legal and tax aspects are properly integrated into their economic operations.
