Legal 500 Editorial commentary
Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘From the first moment, communication with the lawyers and tax specialists has been very easy and fluid. The documentation was carefully studied and analysed to understand the personal and professional circumstances that could be used to argue in the appeals that were going to be filed before the Administration and the Administrative Litigation Court.’
���The team is coordinated in carrying out the work as well as in the relationship with the client. It is also a technically very solvent team.’
‘The case that Garrido was involved in was a difficult matter to manage before the Tax Agency. The arguments in the file and the approach based on jurisprudence were decisive in achieving success after a procedure that lasted several years after the first steps that the company (without Garrido) took without success.’
‘The proposal of new arguments and approaches to meet requirements and face inspections set the firm apart.’
‘Special attention to client service; positive approach; searches for alternatives in tax planning. Roberto de Francisco stands out.’
