'From' is definitely correct. But I would remove the determinate article (the) before the words 'Law 17.' And shouldn't 2000 come after Article 21, preceded by a comma?
I'm not really up on legal terminology, but I do teach English grammar at university level.

Definitely, "from". "With" would imply that the tax is something extra taken from the second party in addition to the wage (when, in fact, the wage goes to the second party and the tax reduces the wage); "by" would imply that the wage somehow deducts the tax from the second party. Neither of those words really make sense here.

No. "From" makes complete sense. Use from when describing a change of places (from somewhere to somewhere else) use with as a company something goes with something else. Only use by in this context when the action is made by an actor and the verb is passive.
Does it make any sense?
