Lexvalor Abogados has handled precedent-setting tax cases. It has continued to build upon its strong connections with accounting firms in the region and is expanding the transfer pricing and accounting section of its practice, particularly through its recent hires at the associate level from Big Four accounting firms. The group handles income tax credit refunds and is also prominent in the VAT space regarding the imposition of VAT on products and companies, as well as litigation stemming from the application of VAT. Carlos Coronel, noted for being ‘deeply knowledgeable in tax regulations’ heads up the team together with Paola Gachet. Víctor Chiriboga, director of the firm’s tax division, is a standout practitioner in the team for the tax elements of M&A, and also advises on double tax treaties and income tax. Founding partner Pablo Arias stands out for tax litigation before a range of judicial authorities, and Ana Belén Cadena and Danny Espinosa are key team members at the associate level.
