Tax is at the heart of Homburger's private client practice which regularly advises on significant estate and succession planning, issues concerning charities and foundations, wealth reorganisation and relocation matters. Domestic work is the firm’s mainstay and it is praised for its depth of knowledge on Swiss tax law, and trusts with Swiss connections, areas where tax expert and practice head Claudia Suter is the key name. Gabrielle Nater-Bass, regarded as an ‘exceptional strategist’, routinely works on family law matters. Tobias Kaufmann is another to note.
