  • ‘Marine Pelletier-Capes, in charge of tax law, is readily available and centralises all corporate tax matters. She demonstrates a high level of responsiveness.’
  • ‘A small team capable of both managing the flow of ordinary and recurring tax issues, and supporting us on specific and complex topics, with excellent quality of service and a consistently sound and balanced approach.’
  • ‘Marine Pelletier-Capes - what we appreciate about her is, beyond her skills which cover both corporate and personal taxation, her intellectual honesty and her integrity.'
  • ‘A readily available team with a broad perspective that generates impressive creativity. This is of paramount importance in cross-border cases, which do not easily fit within the framework of French tax law.’
  • ‘Marine Pelletier-Capes possesses exceptional interpersonal skills, a subtle sense of humour, and an unparalleled understanding of certain aspects of Anglo-Saxon law and their potential interaction with French law.'
  • ‘A highly responsive, agile, and flexible team. Excellent technical knowledge and the ability to effectively grasp a subject in depth and in its entirety, particularly in emergency situations. An excellent team compared to the market standard.’
