TESTIMONIALS

“A formative, stimulating and human experience”

ITRS Avocat is a law firm that you enjoy coming to every morning! After an initial 3-month internship, I naturally decided to do my final internship here too.

Right from the start, I was given a variety of tasks relating to the firm’s advisory, litigation and tax-reporting activities. This enabled me to learn about the technical aspects of tax law in an international context and to become aware of the strategic and operational issues faced by customers, while making the most of my German language skills.

I’m very grateful to Maître Schultze and Maître Hoffmann, who were always available to explain the tasks assigned to me, the technical points and the steps to be taken.
Furthermore, sharing premises with a Franco-German firm also encourages genuine experience sharing.
So, above all, those internships gave me a concrete, demanding and caring vision of the profession of international tax lawyer.

I would highly recommend ITRS Avocat to anyone with an interest in international tax law and who wants to work in a stimulating, learning and humane environment.

Julia, two three- and four-month placements in 2024-2025

At ITRS Avocat, I was given the opportunity to complete a dual year, followed by an internship and a fixed-term contract, in a particularly warm, welcoming and educational team.
This first real professional experience was very enriching and taught me a lot, both about the technical aspects of tax law and about the way to work with lawyers. ITRS Avocat is a team in which you feel fully integrated as an intern.
The variety of tasks assigned allowed me to both work with the other team members and enjoy a degree of independence.
Switching between legal research, declaratory work (3% tax, IRPP), drafting applications, emails to clients or even creating PowerPoint presentations in different areas was very job empowering.
This experience allowed me to familiarize myself with many aspects of the legal profession.
I can highly recommend the firm to others!”

Elisa B., one year of work-study followed by an internship and a fixed-term contract in 2022 – 2024

“Mr Schultze, Ms Hoffmann and Ms Giese always explained the tasks to me very well and were always willing to help. The tasks were varied and diverse – from research and translations to telephone calls with the financial authorities.
Mr Schultze, Ms Hoffmann and Ms Giese always explained the tasks to me very well and were available to answer any questions I had. ITRS Avocat attaches great importance to ensuring that interns understand everything. This enabled me to deepen my knowledge of French tax law and familiarise myself with the many facets of international tax law. You get the opportunity to go far beyond the university curriculum.
The ITRS team is super nice and the working atmosphere is extremely good.
All in all, my time at ITRS Avocat was very enriching!”

Elisa L., 3-month internship in summer 2024

As this was my first internship during my European and trilingual law degree, the attorneys Schultze and Florentin introduced me to the activity of the company in a pedagogical way through their special attention. They also initiated me into international taxation, a vast and complex field. 

Being from Germany, I was able to use my language skills from the beginning working in my native language, but also in French and in English, while being fully involved in the daily activities. 

In addition, I was able to attend client meetings, which enabled me to work on real cases. Lastly, it is a structure that is personal, educational, rich in experience, and allows for personal development.

I highly recommend the ITRS Avocat law firm, especially for a first professional experience!

Valérie, 2 months internship in July/August 2023 

I was intern at ITRS Avocat during the tax season. It gave me the opportunity to put my theoretical knowledge into practice, in particular by exploring the tax reporting side of the business. 

Whether it’s tax returns, litigation or advice, the trainee is involved at the heart of the firm, at every stage of the case. 

I highly recommend this firm due to ist good atmosphere, a healthy pace of work and the opportunity to practise German and tax in an international environment.

Nicolas, 4-month internship in 2023

“A very enriching and professional experience

As a Master 2 student in Tax Law, I was fortunate enough to do a year’s work-study with ITRS Avocat. It was a very rewarding experience!

Being part of a small team enabled me to become fully involved in the life of the firm. I was involved in a wide variety of assignments, both advisory and litigation work, which was extremely career enhancing.

What’s more, the firm’s specialization in international taxation means that I was always immersed in a multilingual environment, which I consider to be a considerable asset.

Finally, it was very enriching to be able to work alongside people who are good listeners and have great teaching skills.

I highly recommend it!”

Héloïse, one-year work-study program in 2021/2022

“A human-sized, well-equipped and instructive firm

ITRS Avocat is a firm where you feel at ease.

Trainees are treated with the utmost consideration and attention. The atmosphere is pleasant and the pace of work healthy.

I can only recommend this firm, which has taught me so much, both in terms of technique and interpersonal skills. During my studies, I spent several internships with associate Schultze and attorney Florentin, whom I would like to thank for their teaching skills and professionalism.

They both taught me the complex and rigorous discipline of international taxation.

A human-sized, well-equipped and instructive firm

Nochmals vielen Dank!
