Montserrat Turrado

I am a partner and head in Bird & Bird's Tax department in the Madrid office.

I'm a lawyer with strong transactional and dispute resolution expertise. With over 20 years' experience within the tax and banking industries, I have wide-ranging experience providing tax advisory services to financial and non-financial entities.

By utilising my knowledge of the Spanish market, its regulatory framework and maintaining regular contact with regulators and the tax authorities, I've built a practice with a clear understanding of clients' tax requirements. I coordinate and lead specialist teams on projects relating to direct and indirect taxation, transfer pricing and tax controversy.

I write regularly on tax issues and lecture and lead seminars for organisations including the ICADE, IEB, Chamber of Commerce of Madrid, IFE and IIR.

I speak fluent Spanish and English.

• I've worked for more than twenty years at Ernst & Young, where I worked primarily for financial entities.
