Filippo is a Partner in Mishcon Private and a Visiting Professor at King's College London with expertise in international tax and estate planning issues. A dual‑qualified English solicitor and Swiss Rechtsanwalt who is also admitted in the BVI, he routinely advises on the establishment and restructuring of trusts and foundations, as well as on UK, EU, Swiss and international tax and succession planning matters, including family governance and disputes.

He has advised a number of governments on the introduction of private foundation laws and successfully lobbied the Swiss government on the recognition of trusts in 2007 (resulting in various amendments to the ratification bill). More recently, he appeared as an expert before the Council of Europe and the EU data protection authorities in connection with the introduction of the OECD’s Common Reporting Standard (CRS) and the EU’s Beneficial Ownership Registers.

Chambers HNW describes him as “a fantastic lawyer, committed to preserving confidentiality and privacy, protecting private client rights. He is very committed and knowledgeable in his field”, while Legal 500 hails him as “one of the best lawyers for international matters” and “outstanding as a private client tax specialist”.
