Local knowledge and strong relationships with government officials

The successful management and resolution of audits and controversies relies heavily on having strong relationships with revenue authorities, and a thorough understanding of local processes and procedures. Our network includes individuals who are members of local specialist groups, as well as former high-ranking government tax officials who have substantial experience working on audits and disputes, both from a client and revenue-authority perspective.

Global reach and perspective

We have Tax Controversy and Dispute Resolution professionals located in all major territories. This means we can provide you with the appropriate support to help you resolve your tax audit or dispute, wherever you need it. We can offer this support on a unilateral, bilateral, or multilateral basis, depending on your needs.

Deep technical subject matter expertise

Revenue authorities are now engaged in enforcement activities across the entire tax spectrum, including direct and indirect tax, as well as other related areas. As a result, organisations should ensure that they have the support of technical specialists in the tax area in which the audit or dispute is focused.
