CMS DeBacker promotes Olivier Querinjean to partner

Belgian law firm, CMS DeBacker, today announced Olivier Querinjean’s promotion to partner in the
firm’s Tax practice.

Olivier, who joined the firm in 2001, specializes in national and international tax law. He has particular
experience of the tax aspects of M&As, restructurings, transfer pricing and structured financings and has developed extensive expertise in international tax agreements and expat taxation. Olivier is particularly interested in cross-border transactions, advising companies, senior management and shareholders. He assists private clients in the organisation of their tax and estate matters. In this
context he negotiates agreements with tax authorities and conducts both administrative and judicial
proceedings.

The firm’s Tax practice, headed by Didier Gregoire, now numbers six lawyers, including two
partners. The team advises both companies and private clients, dealing with all aspects of tax law,
including litigation.

Stanislas van Wassenhove, Managing Partner, said: “Olivier is a brilliant, highly reactive lawyer with
a keen understanding of client needs and I would like to commend him for it. Working relentlessly, he
developed a cutting-edge expertise in a very technical field and is appreciated for his solid yet
creative solutions. His nomination again demonstrates that CMS DeBacker’s supportive and
encouraging environment genuinely gives trainees a shot at making partner.”

Olivier holds a law degree from the Université Catholique de Louvain (2000) and a special tax law
degree from the Ecole Supérieure des Sciences Fiscales (2001). In addition, he is a member of the
International Fiscal Association (IFA) and lectures on tax law at the Facultés Universitaires de Mons
