Career
Pablo Corvera joined Chevez Ruiz Zamarripa in 1994 and was admitted to the partnership in 2004. His main area of practice focuses on tax and administrative litigation and controversies, as well as managing federal tax audit procedures. He is also an adviser on federal taxes related to, among others, the financial system, transfer pricing and corporate restructuring.
For more than 25 years, he has been dedicated to advising companies on tax and administrative matters and defending his clients against actions of the authorities. As a lead litigator, in some important cases in Mexico, his arguments have led the Mexican Courts to declare several tax laws unconstitutional thus annulling several tax assessments determined by the Mexican tax authorities.
Pablo teaches taxation at Universidad Iberoamericana (UIA) and Universidad Panamericana (UP). Currently, he teaches tax law at Centro de Investigación y Docencia Económicas (CIDE).
He has written several articles published in journals specialized in tax and legal matters. He coordinated the work of the Tax Committee of the College of Public Accountants of Mexico (CCPM) in writing the book “Criterios No Vinculativos” Non-Binding Criteria, and is co-author of the book “Procedimientos Contenciosos de Resolución exclusiva de Fondo” Contentious Procedures for Exclusive In Resolution of the Fund.
