  3. Annual Conference

Cross-Border case studies

The annual conference is an opportunity for members of the LEXUNION network, which brings together around one hundred law firms, notary offices and tax experts in 9 countries throughout Europe and Asia, to come together in person around a specific theme.

Topics covered

Conferences usually focus on topical issues in civil and tax law, particularly in the areas of family law, property law and company law.

Attendees firstly analyse how the law of the member countries deals with the same issue, and then present solutions that can be implemented by looking at a cross-border case study. Special consideration is given to international wealth planning.

The conference is organised in such a way that it is an opportunity to meet in a friendly environment, and is open to partners closely associated with the professions represented in the network.
