Tax
Jalsovszky’s tax team focuses on two main branches of work, advisory and contentious. The group fields a dedicated team which handles tax disputes in court and has further expanded its tax litigation practice, which handles an increasing number of lawsuits against the tax authority. The team’s advisory focus centres on corporate and private clients, and practitioners advise on asset protection, succession planning and tax optimisation schemes. Tamás Fehér is head of the tax and commercial litigation practice and brings extensive experience in dispute resolution, along with Péter Barta. Pál Jalsovszky oversees the advisory side, and regularly assists clients with the tax aspects of M&A transactions. Ákos Baráti brings additional expertise in VAT and corporate tax matters to the group.
