When should you involve a lawyer in a tax matter?
At the outset of the proceedings (upon receiving notice from the authority): This is a crucial stage for establishing your position, filing evidentiary motions and actively participating in evidentiary proceedings.
After a first-instance decision has been issued: This is the final opportunity to have the decision changed before the case goes to court. We identify procedural errors and incorrect interpretations of the law by the authority.
After the appeal proceedings have concluded: We prepare a complaint to be lodged with the Voivodeship Administrative Court (WSA), together with an application to suspend enforcement of the decision, helping to prevent an immediate obligation to pay the tax.
In fiscal criminal cases: The earlier the response, the lower the risk of serious consequences. We prevent procedural errors that could determine the outcome of the entire case.
How do we work with you, step by step?
Consultation and assessment: We analyse the facts, assess the risks and outline an initial legal strategy.
Strategy and case file: After reviewing the documentation, we develop a precise action plan – identifying the relevant evidence, applying for an administrative hearing and preparing procedural submissions.
Comprehensive representation: We provide full representation before public authorities and courts, maintaining the highest professional standards and strictly observing all deadlines.
