Disputes with the French Tax Authorities (FTA) are becoming more significant to taxpayers as tax legislation is increasingly complex and unclear in its drafting and the FTA take a more aggressive approach to applying it.

Our integrated team of tax lawyers, litigators recognises that tax related disputes need to be resolved on terms that meet a business's strategic objectives, which must include a continuing relationship with FTA. We appreciate that successful resolution of tax disputes requires an integrated assessment of the commercial imperatives, the merits of the case and its value at each stage.

The Melot & Buchet Avocats law firm assists its clients (companies, private individuals, trusts) in their disputes with the French tax authorities.
