Winston & Strawn recently announced the addition of Rachel Ingwer to the firm’s New York office, where she returns to the Transactions Department and Tax Practice.

A former Winston partner who worked at the firm for more than 12 years, Rachel counsels corporate clients and high net worth individuals on a variety of domestic and cross-border tax issues. She has nearly 15 years of experience in tax matters relating to private equity transactions and other transactional tax matters, including business formations, taxable and tax-free mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures, financings, restructurings, and recapitalizations.

“Rachel brings deep institutional knowledge and private capital experience that will provide significant value across our client base,” said New York Office Managing Partner Mats Carlston in the press release announcing her arrival. “Her tax-related experience as it pertains to fund formation, private equity and financing transactions, family office planning, and international work will help us to continue to deliver targeted counsel to clients on a wide range of issues.”

“Winston will provide me with a variety of fast-paced, interesting work,” Rachel told Law360. “Continuing to work on diverse matters will allow me to keep developing as a lawyer.
