Pinheiro Neto Advogados‘ tax department provides a comprehensive offering structured around three key pillars: non-contentious advisory, administrative litigation, and judicial litigation. This integrated structure enables the team to handle complex, high-value mandates, including domestic and international tax planning and cross-border issues, for a client base that features major players in the mining, energy, and consumer goods industries, among others. The firm’s contentious capabilities are now spearheaded by André Torres dos Santos, who was promoted to practice head in January 2025. He brings specialist knowledge of complex litigation concerning tax regulations and social security. The team also benefits from the expertise of partner Luiz Paulo Romano, an experienced litigator before CARF and the superior courts.
