The team at YARDS is well-placed to assist clients with a broad range of contentious and non-contentious tax mandates. Leadership is split between Dorothée Traverse, who covers corporate and private equity tax, Jérôme Barré, who is adept in patrimonial tax for HNWI, and the ‘reliable’ Laurent Gabaud. Additional names to note include Jérémie Yéni (private equity and real estate tax) and Julia Novak (estate and succession planning).
