Stéphanie focuses on the family-, property- and tax-related as well as the corporate aspects of estate planning, assisting high net-worth families with their estate planning and with the settlement of conflicts with family members.

In addition, she is specialised in the problems encountered by newly formed family units and in property-related legal proceedings, e.g. with respect to the settlement and distribution of matrimonial property and estates.
