What has been the highlight of your practice over the past 12 months?

Together with my team I had the pleasure of dealing with some challenging highlights over the last months. One was and still is assisting a family in substantially reorganising their family and estate planning structure and also relocating its substance. Another one is supporting a client in enforcing her quite valuable matrimonial property division claim awarded by an English court, involving action in various jurisdictions.

What advice would you give rising stars/new lawyers in the private client world?

Ask the right questions. Listen carefully. Try to perfectly understand and assess the client’s needs and also address potentially unpleasant issues.
