Sabrina Lechani's office

I studied at University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne and I have been a member of the Paris Bar since 2018.

During my training as a tax lawyer, I had the chance to do internships with renowned lawyers and companies, which allowed me to gradually move towards the field of VAT (Value Added Tax).

I had the opportunity to work alongside Manon Laporte, with whom I was able to put into practice and deepen my knowledge of tax audits and tax litigation, both in the area of personal and corporate tax law.

Then, during my training at the Paris Bar Training School (Ecole de Formation des Avocats de Paris -EFB) - Ana Palacio & Guido Raimondi class - I did an internship with the international group Khuene + Nagel alongside Muriel Atalla. This experience allowed me to immerse myself in the life of a large international group in order to understand the stakes and problems in the field of taxation.

It was particularly during this six-month internship that I became familiar with VAT and Intrastat compliance. I realised how sensitive and time-consuming these subjects can be, as the stakes are so high for companies.

It was also during my training at the EFB that I joined the international group WTS Global as a trainee and then as a lawyer, working for WTS Selarl and Villemot & Associés. I had the opportunity to assist large international groups with their VAT issues. Thus, for more than four years, I have carried out compliance work (VAT, DEB), analysis and advice for prestigious companies in various fields such as aeronautics and aerospace, fashion, automotive, food industry, pharmaceutical, electronics, or in the e-commerce sector.

Having always had a strong entrepreneurial streak, I have, in parallel to my work in these firms, developed a personal clientele consisting of SMEs in various fields (sport, catering, well-being), companies in the distribution sector, and companies and foundations in the field of art.

In addition, as I am always curious about new technologies, I am also interested in the automation of the VAT compliance. In partnership with IT developers, I'm working on reliable and efficient solutions to make the compliance easier on companies.
