We are pleased to announce the hiring of Leonel Zanotto, as Partner of our Firm.
Leonel joins as a Partner to continue developing the Firm's Tax practice together with Gaston Miani, specifically with a tax consulting advisory focus.
Leonel is an expert in tax issues both nationally and internationally, having spent most of his career in a market-leading international consulting firm based in Buenos Aires, leading the tax team. He is a Public Accountant and has a degree in Business Administration, graduated with honors from the Universidad Argentina de la Empresa (UADE), and a postgraduate degree in taxation from the University of Buenos Aires (UBA). He is a member of the Argentine Association of Fiscal Studies and the International Fiscal Association.
Throughout his career he has advised companies in various areas such as fintech, retail, services, among others. He has also participated in M&A transactions, analyzing the tax issues in due diligence processes, identifying risks and possible opportunities for improvement, as well as evaluating the implementation of tax-free reorganizations. In addition, he has actively participated in tax audits processes at both the national and provincial levels, leading work teams for adequate compliance with tax requirements, identifying potential controversies to arise in court.
He is a professor of subjects related to the tax area at UADE, both in undergraduate and post-graduate degrees.

He has been an invited speaker at numerous conferences and in different courses at universities in different regions of the country.
“I am proud to be able to join the TRS&M team, contributing with my expertise to the growth of the Firm. The current tax context in Argentina and in the world leads us to be very attentive to changes as well as identify opportunities for improvement that optimize the tax burden by making a reasoned evaluation of the impact on the business. That is the challenge and the reason why we will be close to our clients,” Leonel said.
“With the addition of Leonel, TRS&M prioritizes a comprehensive approach to the tax perspective and focused on the business, not only seen from the legal perspective but also from the economic one, supplementing the view of the tax managers of the companies that choose us,” said Marcelo Tavarone, managing partner of the Firm.
“The appointment of Leonel as a partner is great news for the TRS&M Tax Department, thus becoming one of the few multidisciplinary tax departments in the legal market in Argentina,” said Gastón Miani, partner of the TRS&M Tax Department.
