I am the Executive Partner of Fieldfisher Italy and have 30 years of experience in providing tax consultancy and support to national and multinational medium to large enterprises.
I have extensive and long-standing experience in handling tax litigation matters, both in the regional tax courts and in the Supreme Court, acting on behalf of large Italian and multinational corporate enterprises operating in the industrial, commercial and financial sectors. Such litigation concerns domestic VAT and international transactions, excise and customs duties, corporate income tax, transfer pricing, permanent establishments, tax inversion, LBOs, taxation of cross-border and restructuring operations, tax evasion transactions and tax holidays. I also represent taxation bodies in their disputes on local taxes.
I am qualified to practise law and to appear in the Supreme Court, admitted to the Bar of Milan since 1991 and the Bar of the Supreme Court since 2004.
Before concentrating full-time on tax litigation I gained significant and diversified experience in the tax aspects of corporate restructuring, cross-border transactions, financial statements issues and income tax, tax evasion and abuse of the law and on the taxation of supply chain restructuring projects and the structuring of transfer pricing policies.
Before joining Fieldfisher I was the Executive Partner at a legal and tax firm, at which I established and managed the tax litigation department and contributed to establishing the transfer pricing team.
I was the partner responsible for the tax litigation team – which I established and structured – for Italy at one of the Big Four accountancy firms, in which I also shared the responsibility for the tax effective supply chain restructuring team
