Big Law firms based in Europe, such as Dentons, DLA Piper, Squire Patton Boggs, and Paul Hastings, have seen a surge in the hiring of tax partners, specifically those with expertise in international investment funds and litigation, during the first two months of 2024. This demand has been triggered by a combination of Brexit, economic turbulence, and various reforms.
A recent noteworthy addition was made by Dentons in Milan, Italy, who brought on board a team of three led by partner Gianmarco Tortora. Tortora, whose clientele extends across the transportation, sports, real estate, finance, and technology sectors, specializes in corporate and value-added tax issues, as well as cross-border investment structures.
The lawyers being recruited in this recent wave reflect a strategic move to bolster capabilities and pivot focus during challenging markets to areas of strongest demand.
