Tax Law

Our Tax Department advises national and international clients on complex tax matters, including tax litigation, at the national, provincial and municipal levels. We have broad experience in traditional sectors such as banking and finance, insurance, real estate, utilities, energy and telecommunications, as well as the dynamic e-commerce, pharmaceutical, fintech and software sectors among others.

Our expertise covers local and international tax planning, double taxation agreements, CFC rules, IPOs, mutual funds, trusts, loan agreements, capital contributions, transfer pricing, securities and bonds, financial derivatives, stock purchase and options agreements, tax-free reorganizations and intangible assets. As a result, our tax team is involved in nearly every major merger and acquisition, project finance, cross-border deal and corporate restructuring, advising on the tax implications of complex administrative and financing structures and providing solutions to minimize exposure and seek efficiencies. We work with private investment funds, family businesses, private clients and tax-exempt organizations, rounding out a solid corporate clientele.

We are renowned in tax matter litigation. Beccar Varela is also the first full-service market leader to counsel on tax and fiscal offences, working with our White Collar Corporate Crime Department. Focusing on prevention and working hand in hand with our Compliance team, we can provide guidance on compliance programs and deliver specialized training in transparency and risk prevention on tax regulations to strengthen in-house regulatory compliance efforts.
