While tax is the mainstay of Wenger Plattner‘s private client offering, it also is well-positioned to draft wills and marriage contracts, represent clients in inheritance-related litigation, as well as advise on succession and estate planning. Spearheading the practice is Filippo Th. Beck , who focuses on banking and finance matters. Daniel Gabrieli is especially active, advising primarily on relocation planning and real estate acquisitions. Simon Schweizer joined as partner in November 2023 and Michael A. Schifferli was promoted to partner in 2024.
