Linda Pfatteicher concentrates her practice in international tax and operational structuring, cross-border mergers, acquisitions and post-acquisition integration, and international tax controversies.

Linda's clients range from startups to billion-dollar multinationals. She has assisted clients in a wide variety of industries including, most significantly, high tech, medical devices, entertainment software, manufacturing and distribution, oil and gas, consumer products and venture funds.

Linda has worked with her clients in structuring acquisitions, integrating legal entities, working to optimize the foreign/US tax base (including negotiating and obtaining tax holidays and utilizing low-tax jurisdictions), advising on cross-border financing, managing indirect tax costs and ensuring that the final international structure can efficiently meet both US and non-US compliance requirements.

This work includes disputes related to buy-in and cost sharing agreements and analysis of the impact of corollary effects, such as earnings and profits and foreign tax credits.

She has negotiated tax rulings for her clients in the Netherlands, Singapore and Switzerland.

Linda has previously worked for one of the Big Four accountancy firms as well as another top 20 international law firm.
