About KPMG’s dispute resolution team

Our KPMG dispute resolution team has extensive experience assisting organisations resolving tax disputes, while maintaining an effective working relationship with tax authorities.

Tax law can be complex and uncertain and with each new development in the tax environment, the context for resolving tax disputes changes. For companies, this could result in a position of conflict that requires strategy and expertise to navigate.

Our philosophy on tax dispute resolution is rooted in our unwavering dedication to our clients and their desired outcomes. We firmly believe in positioning ourselves between our clients and their tax challenges, ensuring that their needs remain at the forefront of every action we take.

By adopting this client-centric approach, we align our strategies, actions, and expertise to best serve our clients’ interests. We recognise that each client’s situation is unique, and we take pride in our ability to provide tailored solutions to address their specific needs.

We are not simply focused on winning cases; our primary focus is on achieving the outcomes our clients seek. This dedication is reflected in everything we do and how we do it. We strive to build strong, long-lasting relationships with our clients, based on trust, transparency, and integrity.
