Nicolas Wolski has become the new Head of Tax at BPV Huegel, taking over from Partner Gerald Schachner.
Wolski has been with BPV Huegel since 2018 and was promoted to Partner in 2021. Before that, he was a Counsel with Willkie Farr & Gallagher between 2016 and 2017, a Counsel with Graf von Westphalen between 2015 and 2016, and a Counsel with Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer between 2011 and 2015.
According to BPV Huegel, Schachner is leaving the firm after 14 years to set up his own law firm.
“We are looking forward to continuing to work with Nicolas in his new role," Co-Managing Partner Christoph Nauer. "As Head of Tax, he will lead the further development of the practice group. Our goal is to give it an even stronger international focus. I would also like to thank our Partner and friend Gerald for his significant contribution to the successful development of BPV Huegel’s tax practice.”
“I would like to thank my Partners for their trust," added Wolski. "It is of course an honour to take over the lead of the practice group from Gerald. It’s unfortunate that he is leaving. We as a team, but also I personally, are very grateful to him for his always respectful and friendly support, especially in my early years at BPV Huegel. I am looking forward to my new role.”
