About me
With more than ten years of experience in tax law, I advise clients on the most complex tax matters – ranging from international transactions and business structuring to private wealth planning, as well as the prevention, strategy and tactics of tax disputes. My experience in both the private and public sectors allows me to take a broader view, to better assess potential tax risks and to offer clients more effective solutions for managing them.
Professional highlights
Expertise grounded in academic experience. My strong academic background, combined with extensive practical experience, enables me to better understand the nature of complex challenges faced by clients and to propose strategic, well-reasoned and sustainable solutions that go beyond the standard approaches.
Comprehensiveness. I advise clients on a wide range of complex tax matters, with a particular focus on structuring domestic and cross-border transactions, tax-efficient business reorganisations, private wealth planning and managing tax risks with strategic decisions. I am regularly involved in preventing and resolving tax disputes, supporting clients from early risk assessment through to dispute strategy and representation. My work is centred on delivering practical, commercially sound solutions tailored to each client’s business, sector and long-term objectives, including in highly regulated industries and for transactions of greater complexity.
International recognition. My expertise is recognised by leading international legal directories, including Chambers and Partners, The Legal 500 and ITR World Tax, where I am consistently ranked among leading professionals in my field. For private client law, I have been awarded the highest, Band 1 ranking.
