Baker McKenzie‘s prominent team of four partners adeptly manages an extensive array of contentious and non-contentious matters for a diverse clientele, comprising standalone corporate entities, private individuals, and the firm’s institutional clients. Pierre Chan leads the practice, which is bolstered by its seamless collaboration with the firm’s regional and global offices distributed across an expansive network; this synergy is particularly evident in the team’s involvement in substantial global restructuring matters and the formulation of tax strategies for multinational enterprises. Chan excels particularly in cross-border tax issues, often encompassing dispute resolution and family planning. With his background as the former head of the APAC tax practice, Steven Sieker boasts an extensive understanding of tax intricacies affecting clients across the region, as well as in a domestic setting. A core competency of Sieker lies in his proficiency in resolving tax disputes with the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong. Other key figures include Amy Ling, who brings expertise in advising on PRC tax issues, and Anne Quenedey, a French-qualified lawyer concentrating on tax advisory work for Asia and Europe, embodying the team’s European outreach.
