The 15-strong team at specialised tax law firm, Torretti & Martínez-Conde, ‘has extensive knowledge of tax issues and an excellent ability to find solutions’. Recent mandates range from defence-side tax dispute resolution at both administrative and judicial levels, to the firm’s core tax advisory and planning business. The practice’s principal figures are firm founder Eduardo Torretti, an adviser to domestic and foreign clients on corporate taxation and tax planning, who also acts in tax disputes before Chile’s Tax Authority and the Tax and Customs Courts, and assists high-net-worth individuals and families with tax issues; and investment and succession planning specialist Sebastián Martínez-Conde, who is ’quick to respond to clients' needs’. The second line of highly-regarded practitioners showcases Javiera Pérez, an expert in tax and family planning matters; Carlos Bravo, whose workload covers tax planning and tax disputes before the Chilean Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Tax and Customs Courts; and tax dispute expert Eric Donoso. At associate level, Sebastián Aguilar is ‘studious and discerning’; fellow-senior and corporate tax law and wealth management specialist Francisco Larios is currently working remotely from New York; Isidora Henríquez advises on family investment strategies, asset protection, estate planning and tax compliance; and Orlando Ansaldo assists with national and international restructuring-related tax matters.
