Tax audit, reassessment and disputes with the tax authorities.
A tax audit has to be prepared. The answers given to the authorities, and the time limits in which they are given, weigh on everything that follows. The firm assists businesses and individuals from the moment the audit notice is received.
It then takes part in the discussion with the authorities and, if the disagreement remains, acts before the competent courts.

Frequent questions
When should I consult?
As early as possible: as soon as the audit notice arrives. Time limits for answering are short, and a late or incomplete answer weakens the defence.
Does the firm work with my accountant?
Yes. A tax defence rests on the accounts. The firm works with your accountant to gather the supporting documents.
Which documents should I bring?
The audit notice, the notifications received, your tax returns and the exchanges you have already had with the authorities.
