Julián Martin joins Tavarone, Rovelli, Salim & Miani

Julián Martin & Asoc. ​a​nd​ ​Tavarone, Rovelli, Salim & Miani​​ (TRS&M) are pleased to announce that, as of this month of June 2018, the Tax Advisory departments of both firms join their efforts and their capacities to add synergies and enhance their growth.

Julián Martin is a Chartered Public Accountant (UBA), was a Tax Partner of KPMG in charge of the Financial Services and Tax Planning Area, and previously was Manager of the Tax & Legal department of Price Waterhouse. He was also a member of the Federal Tax Administration working in the Internal Control Area.

His practice is recognized in the market due to his solid knowledge and experience in tax advisory matters with greater specialization in financial, banking, and capital market issues, which is why he was nominated by the International Tax Review among Argentina’s leading tax advisors in the Banking and Capital Markets Area.

The Tax Department of TRS&M, in charge of Gastón Miani, has established itself as a benchmark in the tax and customs dispute area, having obtained important rulings from the Federal Supreme Court of Justice and from the lower courts in highly complex cases. On the other hand, the tax advice practice of TRS&M has grown exponentially since the foundation of the firm, giving special support to the Corporate, Banking, Financial, and Energy areas, which is why TRS&M has managed to form a team of professionals with proven experience in the subject.

We are convinced that the union of both tax practices will develop the numerous synergies that will contribute to maintaining the sustained growth of the two firms.
