It also assists with tax audits before the Chilean IRS, tax litigation, and start-up companies’ tax and restructuring issues. The department is co-led by longstanding tax specialist Rodrigo Álvarez, and the ’tremendously creative’ Amory Heine, who advises both Chilean and foreign clients on corporate and personal tax planning.
