Successful result in tax appeal
As a part of Lavrynovych and Partners pro bono program «Protection of Small and Medium Business» the lawyers of the firm advised private entrepreneur O. Pechenyuk who was unlawfully surcharged by the State Tax Inspectorate in Desnyanskyy District (Kyiv) with the financial fine in amount of UAH 443,387. The unlawful decision of the tax body was successfully appealed to the State Tax Administration of Kyiv that issued its order on cancellation of the challenged decision on January 13, 2010.
