Shai Kuttner, Adv.

Founding partner

Shai Kuttner, Adv., is the founding partner of Kuttner & Co. and the head of the firm's International Commercial department, the Mergers and Acquisitions department, and the International Taxation department.
Shai is one of the top Israeli lawyers in the field of international commercial law and has unique multi-year experience enabling him to find creative solutions for his clients based on his extensive knowledge of the international market in general and European market in particular.
The vast international experience he has attained at the offices of leading foreign lawyers in the United States and Europe helps Shai simplify complex processes and bridge cultural gaps arising in the field of international trade with respect to law and business culture.
Shai is a founding partner of one of the first foreign law firms to be established in The Netherlands (in 1991) - SBL, a firm that employs lawyers and tax consultants working, among other things in the areas of corporate law, investment, taxation, and dispute management.
Shai provides legal support to a wide range of international companies as well as leading Israeli companies operating abroad, keeping a close watch on the client's interests and believing that by maintaining the best interests of all the parties it is possible to shorten processes and come to agreements that survive the test of time under volatile business circumstances.
In addition, Shai believes that a lawyer has a duty to prevent the waste of the client's resources, both financial and administrative, by achieving the best available legal and business outcome.
His extensive experience and interpersonal skills enable Shai to analyze and break down complex cases, handle the core issues standing before him in a rational and professional fashion, and consistently distinguish between the principal and the peripheral matters in providing legal support.
In addition to his occupation as a lawyer, Shai studies and teaches Buddhism and applies his worldview in an outstanding manner in the law profession. The ability to indisputably maintain the client's interests but still see the other side as a person with their own legitimate interests reflects Shai's as well as the entire firm's vision.
Shai interned for two years with Seligman & Co. law firm under the supervision of lawyer Eli Zohar. Shai founded the firm Kuttner & Co. in 1998 after residing for 12 years in the United States and The Netherlands, where he worked as an international commercial lawyer.
