We accompany and support our clients in regard to all questions that pertain to complex taxation issues. Tax planning advice begins, for example, with the company or group’s tax quota and is the starting point for reorganizational measures that aim to optimize taxes. We have access to a comprehensive network of international law firms so that in all cases involving cross-border considerations we are able to accompany our clients completely both in respect to the German and the local aspects in another country. Our taxation expertise covers not only the area of taxes on income but also, in particular, the area of value added tax, which is becoming ever more complex.
