Pérez-Llorca has steadily built a robust tax practice under the leadership of Christian Kaye, whose broad expertise spans tax litigation, corporate restructuring and transactional tax matters. The group is particularly strong in tax controversy, frequently managing indirect amparo lawsuits and nullity claims challenging tax credits, while also maintaining a solid advisory offering. The team continues to expand, most recently with the January 2025 hire of associate Miguel Ángel Rosas Ortiz from Holland & Knight México, S.C..
