Working across several sectors, the team at Linklaters handles the full spectrum of tax matters; recently, it has been particularly active in advising on the tax aspects of M&A deals, restructurings and refinancing transactions for some of the largest Spanish corporates. The team is also equipped to represent clients in contentious proceedings and guide them through the tax intricacies of the capital markets and financial industries. The team is co-led by Javier García-Pita, who is proficient in both transactional matters and tax audit proceedings, and Alejandro Meca, a key contact for Spanish and international companies, private equity houses, and financial institutions, who is well versed in the tax structuring of foreign investments. Carlos Olmedo is another name to note in the tax team.
