During the research period, the firm advised Costa Hirota in the elaboration of lawsuits to discuss the illegality of the linkage between the Occupancy Permit’s issuance and the payment of a tax called “ISS Habite-se.” This matter is very relevant to the building sector because it is the final step to obtain the Occupancy Permit and the municipalities take advantage of it to bind a high and artificial tax.

The firm welcomed senior associate Rafael Pascoto Fugimoto, previously from FH Law.
