King & Spalding has added a new partner to its Swiss tax practice in the form of Jonathan Ivinson, who joins the firm’s Geneva office from Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld.



His practice focuses on the planning and implementation of investment and asset holding structures for clients including trusts, high net worth individuals and multinational corporations. He also advises on family offices and family wealth advisory matters.

Ivinson is the second partner to join the Geneva office this year following the hire in January of World Trade Organisation (WTO) litigator Rambod Behboodi.

In December 2017 the firm also hired two senior trade lawyers in the forms of Hannes Welge from the European Commission and Hamid Mamdouh also from the WTO.
