Practice
Sebastian is a member of the Munich Private Clients team.
The team specializes in providing holistic advice to high-net-worth individuals, especially family entrepreneurs and their mostly complex international asset structures. “Our clients can expect advice that comprehensively considers not only all legal aspects but - as our experience shows - also all personal aspects that family life itself, and the life of an entrepreneurial family in particular, entails.”
The Private Clients team therefore brings together highly skilled experts in corporate law, inheritance and family law and, above all, tax experts in order to quickly identify and understand all the individual needs of the clients and to provide them with highly qualified advice.
Within the team, Sebastian focuses his practice on all corporate law issues, as well as on transformations and restructuring (often with international references), in particular on tax optimization of existing holding structures. Therefore, he also creates solutions for all aspects of corporate governance. In addition, he advises on all inheritance and gift tax matters. Sebastian is an author in the leading professional journals and he comments, among other provisions of the German Inheritance and Gift Tax Act (ErbstG), on one of the key provisions for the inheritance and gift tax exemptions for business assets (Sec. 13a ErbStG).
