Pinsent Masons Rechtsanwälte Steuerberater Solicitors Partnerschaft mbB experienced some recent changes: former practice head Wolfram Pätzold joined Gowling WLG in July 2023 and the transaction expert Tobias Nuß moved to PwC Legal (PricewaterhouseCoopers Legal AG Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft) in February 2023. In September 2022, Katharina von Hermanni (individual property and portfolio transactions, forward funding deals, project developments and commercial tenancy law) was appointed head of real estate sector Germany and Jörn Fingerhuth (real estate transactions) was appointed head of property Germany. The competencies of Fingerhuth and von Hermanni correspond with the overall focus of the team, which advises across all asset classes, although the focus is on retirement and care properties as well as hospitality and hotels.
