GSK Stockmann‘s firm-wide focus on the real estate sector is also reflected in its tax practice, which handles transaction and project-related matters as well as fund structuring; recently, the group was particularly active in matters pertaining to ESG and green tax. For cross-border issues, particularly in the areas of financial taxes and fund structuring, the team regularly cooperates with offices in Luxembourg and London. Petra Eckl in Frankfurt and Dirk Koch in Munich jointly head the practice and cover the tax spectrum comprehensively. Dominik Berka (real estate transactions and investment tax law) made local partner in January 2023.
