På intet andet retsområde er forskellen mellem at have ret og at få ret så stor som inden for skatte- og afgiftsretten. Med staten som modpart kræver det dyb erfaring, et kompromisløst fokus på kvalitet og et tæt samarbejde med klienten og dennes daglige skatterådgivere at etablere det rette modspil til statens uudtømmelige ressourcer.

Plesner er markedsleder inden for førelse af skatte- og afgiftssager. Vi har dedikeret os til at føre principielle og komplekse sager fra de første forhandlinger med skattemyndighederne over Landsskatteretten og til domstolene og EU-Domstolen. 

Intet andet dansk advokatfirma har vundet så mange betydende skatte- og afgiftssager som Plesner. Tidsskriftet International Tax Review har i 2024 – for 13. gang siden 2009 – kåret Plesner som "Denmark Tax Firm of the Year".

Samarbejde er kernen i vores arbejdsform. 

Vi sætter et team til at håndtere den enkelte sag og puljer de nødvendige ressourcer og erfaringer. Vi lægger stor vægt på aktiv partnerinvolvering i alle led af processen, og vi arbejder tæt sammen med klienterne og deres daglige skatterådgivere. 

Vi er drevet af en ambition om at levere kompromisløs kvalitet i hver sag, vi påtager os. Vi anser førelsen af skattesager for en kreativ proces, hvor det er nødvendigt at tænke ud af boksen. Ofte findes løsningen i lignende problemstillinger inden for andre dele af retssystemet, og førelsen af skattesager kræver derfor stor viden – også om andre retsområder end skatteretten. Vi dyrker detaljen, men bevarer overblikket.

Rådgivning er en tillidssag. Vi siger, hvad vi mener. Vi tager intet for givet, men efterprøver alle relevante præmisser, og vi udfordrer vanetænkning. 

At føre – og vinde – en skattesag kræver betydelig proceserfaring. Plesner har det største og mest komplette team af højt specialiserede skatteprocesadvokater. Vores samlede erfaring og trackrecord giver klienten den bedste mulighed for også at få ret.
