Defined legal service
Tax consultations and disputes
Legal assessment of a Ukrainian tax question, request, audit or authority decision for an individual or business, based on the particular transaction, period and documents.
The problem you need to resolve
- you received a tax request, audit report, assessment or other authority document
- you need a legal assessment or an application for an individual tax consultation
What you receive
- a written position on the specific issue and missing records
- an agreed response, objection, appeal or application for an individual tax consultation
What we do
- review the questionnaire, deadlines and agreed document list
- separate verified facts from assumptions and define the legal objective
- Identify the taxpayer, tax, period, transaction and service date.
- Compare the authority’s position with primary records, contracts, returns and accountant explanations.
- Assess a response, objections, administrative appeal or court proceedings and calculate the applicable time limit.
- Prepare the agreed document and evidence list; audit attendance, filing and representation are separately scoped.
What we need from you
- authority document and proof of service
- contracts, primary records and relevant returns
- previous replies and correspondence
- transaction, amount and period details through an agreed channel
- answer focused follow-up questions and verify the factual information
- do not send a full set of sensitive documents before the conflict-of-interest check and agreement of a protected channel
Fees
- Fees depend on the facts and scope of support. After a short discussion, we explain what the work includes and its cost. Fees are agreed before work begins.
- A possible first stage is a written action plan: review of agreed documents, legal assessment, next steps, deadlines, risks and alternatives.
- Additional objectives, extensive materials and foreign-language documents are discussed separately.
- Court fees and other mandatory payments are separate from the lawyer's fee. Notarial, translation, valuation and expert costs are also agreed separately.
What may change the route
- objections or new claims from another party
- missing, inconsistent or newly received documents
- the need for valuation, expert evidence, a notarial or registration step
- existing court or enforcement proceedings, a missed or imminent deadline
When this service is not suitable
- legal advice does not replace bookkeeping, audit or an authority’s tax consultation
- concealing income or fabricating documents is outside the service
How we report progress
- we agree the communication channel before work begins
- we report receipt of materials, completion of the assessment, document readiness and the next required action
- where new facts or extra work arise, we first explain the effect on timing and fees and ask for your approval

Frequently asked questions
Is an advocate’s opinion an individual tax consultation?
No. The competent tax authority issues that consultation under the Tax Code. We can prepare an appropriate application.
Do all decisions have the same appeal period?
No. The decision, procedure, service date and special rules must be reviewed.
Must I start with a court claim?
Available routes and consequences are assessed first. An administrative appeal and a court claim are different procedural steps.
