Integrated Legal and Tax Advice

Our clients benefit from a market-established holistic and integrative consulting approach that is unique in Germany and was significantly developed by Frank Dissen, Partner: Tax and legal advice from a single source (labor, immigration, social security and tax law). As a rule, tax, social security and other aspects such as labor or immigration law must first be weighed against each other in order to find the best possible solution for the client. This applies to both national and international matters.

Our experts at WTS have broad and also practical experience due to their work in international consulting companies, in the IT industry as well as in financial administration. This enables us to take a very practical approach, which ultimately helps our clients to sustainably increase their business success.

Our holistic and interdisciplinary approach to legal and tax advice offers you everything from a single source.
