A group of partners are breaking away from Dewey & LeBoeuf and Noerr in Germany to join tax boutique WTS.

Three partners from Dewey’s Frankfurt office – Carsten Fischer, Bela Jansen and Dieter Luebbehuesen – are set to join WTS on 1 September, while Stefan Hoelzemann, the co-head of Noerr’s Munich tax and private client practice, will also return to WTS in September having worked there from 2000 to 2005.
