At the beginning of his self-employed career, he worked, among other roles, for one of Germany\u2019s most renowned law firms in the area of income tax. Through this work, Sebastian Thelen gained extensive experience not only in the ongoing tax advisory of corporations and partnerships, but also in private client services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside his professional activities, Sebastian Thelen studied Business Law at the Faculty of Law of the University of M\u00fcnster. Upon completion of this part-time program, he was awarded the academic degree Master of Laws (LL.M.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
