Selected experience

Gaëlle brings over 15 years of high-level expertise in both direct and indirect taxation, with a strong focus on international tax law. She advises a broad portfolio of banking, private equity, and corporate clients, delivering strategic guidance on complex cross-border transactions, group restructurings, and sophisticated tax planning.
Gaëlle is particularly renowned for her in-depth knowledge of Luxembourg’s regulated and unregulated investment fund landscape, and her trusted counsel to leading global private equity players. She is widely recognised for her practical, solution-driven approach and her ability to resolve complex tax matters from every angle, always putting her clients' needs first.
She regularly represents high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and corporate clients in sensitive and high-stakes disputes with the Luxembourg tax authorities, covering both direct tax and criminal tax litigation. Her expertise includes audit defense, pre-litigation strategy, mutual agreement procedures, and court representation at all levels. Gaëlle also advises on the prevention of tax risks through proactive structuring and compliance.
In parallel, Gaëlle has developed deep expertise in private wealth planning, advising international families on cross-border asset structuring, succession planning, and investment vehicles – often involving Luxembourg and international trusts, holding companies, and funds. Her transversal approach ensures seamless coordination between tax, legal, and business considerations.
She is a lecturer in international tax law at the University of Lorraine (Metz), and contributes to several associations including ALFI, LuxCMA, and the International Fiscal Association (IFA). She is also a regular author on tax-related topics.
