THE FIRM
Sánchez de Moutas & Guzmán is a law firm with a solid track record founded in 1999. Since its incorporation, the firm has provided services to companies in the areas of corporate law, mergers and acquisitions and the related tax obligations.
At the same time, with the increase in economic criminal offences and, in particular, with the regulation of the criminal liability of legal persons, the firm offers a wide range of services in these areas.
Areas of expertise
Corporate law and M&A
The corporate field can reach a high degree of complexity. In the day-to-day running of companies it may be required to structure shareholders' agreements, carry out corporate mergers or takeover operations, or manage conflicts inside the company itself.
The number of transactions involved in the sale and purchase of companies or production units is currently growing. Each of them requires a high level of specialisation in order to provide the client with the best service, and the tax impact of each corporate decision must be kept under expert oversight..
Tax Law
Our range of services includes, among others:
- Permanent or specific advice on international, national and local tax matters for Spanish and foreign companies in direct and indirect taxation.
- Advice and tax planning in corporate restructuring.
- Tax litigation: Assistance, representation and defence in management, collection and inspection proceedings before the Tax Administration, through Economic-Administrative and Contentious-Administrative channels.
- Advice and tax planning for individuals and family businesses. Testamentary planning.
Economic Criminal Law
The reforms that criminal law has been undergoing in recent years as a result of its international standardisation and in application of European legislation has led to the emergence of a sector of Criminal Law that is targeted at companies and businessmen, on the one hand, and public officials, civil servants and administrations on the other.
Specialisation in this area is essential and must be coordinated with other areas of expertise such as Tax Law, Company Law, Prevention of Money Laundering and Accounting.
