Tax
The tax practice at Bernardes & Advogados Associados primarily focuses on non-contentious mandates, including tax planning, tax reviews, and due diligence, though the team is also engaged in judicial and administrative proceedings concerning PIS, COFINS and ICMS contributions. Companies from the automotive, transport, and telecoms sectors, among others, regularly seek the team's advice on complex tax litigation. Flávio Couto Bernardes and André Tostes Carvalho co-head the group, with Bernardes specialising in advisory work and Carvalho concentrating on tax planning. The practice also benefits from the expertise of associate Valéria Cabral Géo Verçoza, a former counsellor of CARF and the Tax Appeals Board.
