How to win a court tax dispute in Kharkiv?

The controversy of the parties in a judicial tax dispute is one of the principles of any legal dispute, including a dispute with the tax inspectorate. The controversial principle means that both parties in a court tax dispute - the claimant and the defendant - compete in presenting evidence and legal positions to the court, as well as in proving the cogency to the court. And in the end, the judicial tax dispute will be won by that party which will provide the court with the most convincing and weighty evidence and legal position, as well as prove the legal viability of its arguments in court. So, to win a court tax dispute and successfully protect the interests of an enterprise or an entrepreneur, it is necessary to carefully consider the tactics and the strategy of defense in court, to develop a competent legal position and to collect convincing documentary and other evidence on protection in a court tax dispute. Therefore, self-defense in court is theoretically possible, but in the absence of deep knowledge in the field of law and taxation and the skills of their practical application, even if you are right, you can lose even a winning tax dispute in court. The specialists of the audit company "Olympia-audit" have all the necessary knowledge to win legal tax disputes that can be won.
