Noerr gains Tim Löper as new associated partner in tax law

Lawyer and tax consultant Tim Löper will join Noerr’s Munich office as an associated partner on 1 August and strengthen the firm’s tax law practice.

Tim Löper advises companies and financial investors on the tax aspects of M&A and private equity transactions. His expertise also extends to fund structuring and international tax law. The 34-year-old is making the move to Noerr from Kirkland & Ellis in Munich.

Carsten Heinz, Co-Head of Tax Law at Noerr, commented: “With Tim Löper we are gaining an experienced and highly qualified lawyer and tax advisor for our expanding practice group”. Co-Head Georg Edelmann said: “Our growth is mainly driven by complex, cross-border transactions and tax structuring matters, and Tim’s skills are a perfect match.”

Tim Löper will enhance the existing transaction tax and fund structuring team at Noerr’s Munich office, which currently consists of four equity partners and two associated partners plus five (senior) associates. He will work closely with colleagues from the private equity, corporate, M&A and real estate investment practice groups. “We are thus continuing our growth course with young, highly qualified advisors in the high-end sector”, said Carsten Heinz.

The practice group’s broad range of advice includes tax advice for M&A/private equity transactions, the structuring of funds and fund investment guidance, corporate reorganisations, restructuring and insolvency matters, succession planning for individuals and companies within tax and inheritance law, tax compliance and investigations and advice for both judicial and extrajudicial enforcement.
