Tax

Turning tax into a lever for performance

and decision-making

The tax team of Coblence Avocats advises companies, groups, directors and officers on all of their tax matters, in both advisory and litigation, with a strategic and pragmatic approach.

It acts in particular on the tax aspects of equity transactions — mergers and acquisitions, private equity, intra-group reorganisations — for a clientele composed of companies, family offices, entrepreneurs, managers and investors.

Coblence Avocats also advises founders, directors and officers on their personal and wealth-related tax issues: structuring of remuneration, management packages, incentive arrangements, transfer and exit planning.

Lastly, the team handles the defence of companies and individuals in tax audits and tax disputes, both upstream — in exchanges with the tax authorities — and before the relevant courts.

OUR APPROACH

We place tax at the heart of the strategic decisions of companies and their directors and officers, in close connection with their corporate, financial and wealth-related transactions.

Our approach is based on the anticipation of tax risks, the rigorous structuring of transactions and a proven ability to defend our clients’ interests in sensitive or contentious contexts.
