Tax
Tax is a mainstay at Goh, with sources commending its ‘great knowledge of the legal environment coupled with practical experience’. The comprehensive practice shines in tax planning, transactional tax and litigation, including transfer pricing; it is also distinguished by its formidable expertise in energy and natural resources-related tax matters. Founding partner Catalina Hoyos is a high-profile tax expert and fronts both the tax law and the tax litigation teams. Co-founding partner Juan Pablo Godoy is recommended for his emphasis on tax relating to the extractive industries. Rounding out the partner-level group, Mónica Inés Hernández handles a mix of advisory, litigation and transfer-pricing compliance matters. Associate director Catalina Amaris is also noted. Associate director Luís Felipe Noreña left for ISA Interconexión Eléctrica in May 2023.
