On 16 April 2018 the Legalcommunitry Tax Awards were held, the annual ceremony of Legalcommunity that awards the law firms and professionals that stand out in tax advisory. Co-managing partner Stefano Simontacchi received the award for Professional of the Year.

The jury that was called on to evaluate highlighted Stefano Simontacchi’s leadership skills and defined him as “a leader who really knows how to make a difference. He is tireless and always a step ahead of others.” According to the jurors, what also distinguishes him is his “ability to see far ahead and to find solutions where, in the eyes of most, there seem to not be any”.
