Income taxes

During our 20-year practice we gained huge experience within the areas of both Corporate Income Tax and Personal Income Tax. We have advised on all sorts of issues, working with a wide range of clients. We regularly work with big capital groups (please, see the “Transfer pricing” tab), small and medium businesses as well as private individuals.

Our support for a business may take a form of a day-to-day assistance or involvement in particular projects demanding special attention as it may happen with implementation of innovative technologies (please, see the “Incentives for innovation” tab) or other investments.
