MBC Abogados’ ‘specialised team’ acts for companies, individuals and family offices on the gamut of tax issues. The 11-strong tax practice is experienced in cross-border taxation, in addition to administrative proceedings before the Chilean Tax Authority. The department is led by tax law specialist María Teresa Cremaschi, whose ’attention and leadership are without a doubt remarkable’; and Jazmín Gajardo acts in tax-related dispute resolution. At associate level, Natacha Fuenzalida C assists with tax disputes, and Bernardita Echavarri S (‘very thorough and efficient’) focuses on corporate tax advisory matters. The firm experienced the departure of former partners Nicolás Alvarado and Evelyn Sepúlveda, and of associate María Pilar Diez over the nine months to June 2024.
