During these two very intensive years I have discussed the top taxation issues with colleagues and professors. Thanks to the LL.M., I am now able to co-operate with my hometown university, but most importantly, can approach everyday practice with an enhanced understanding.” Andrea Brignoli (Italy, Part-time 2011/13) Tax advisor at Studio Lucchini “The LL.M. has helped me develop unique communication, analytical and problem-solving skills that will help make me succeed in a new role.
