Geneviève is a seasoned tax lawyer who has more than two decades of experience advising Canadian domestic and multinational clients on the corporate tax aspects of mergers and acquisitions, financings, corporate reorganizations, and investment structures, with particular expertise in Canadian partnership taxation. Fluent in English and French, her extensive experience in tax planning and tax disputes with the Canada Revenue Agency and provincial tax authorities allows her to develop strategies that ensure clients can efficiently and effectively resolve any corporate tax situation.

"Tax law is a dynamic and essential aspect of corporate operations, presenting both challenges and opportunities," said Brett Anderson, co-head of McCarthy Tétrault’s National Tax Group.
