Orrick Rambaud Martel est doté d’une équipe solide et très complémentaire.  Anne-Sophie Kerfant dispose d’une grande expérience en matière de fiscalité transactionnelle.

Le responsable de la pratique Laurent Olléon est un spécialiste du contentieux fiscal et des sujets fiscaux complexes. Il est mandaté par de grandes entreprises françaises pour les assister dans leurs dossiers à forts enjeux (il traite actuellement plusieurs dossiers de fiscalité locale). A noter, l’arrivée en juillet 2021 de Jessie Gaston (ex Dentons ) qui renforce l’expertise du cabinet sur les opérations internationale et la gestion du risque fiscal assurantiel ; ainsi que le départ à la même période de Charles Briand  .
