KPMG Law Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft mbH (KPMG Law) wins Cilem Aksu-Aflatoon as Senior Manager for the Mergers & Acquisitions and Venture Capital practice at its Nuremberg office.

Cilem Aksu-Aflatoon joined KPMG Law’s Nuremberg office as a senior manager on July 1, 2021. She started her career at Familienwerte GmbH Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft as an advisor to medium-sized companies of family-run businesses, then joined the Corporate/M&A team of Rödl & Partner, gained further experience in M&A and VC at PwC Legal and most recently worked in the legal department of Faber-Castell AG. Her focus includes national and international corporate transactions, in particular in the areas of new technologies (digital economy) and industrial manufacturing.

The expansion of KPMG Law’s Corporate/M&A practice follows a consistent strategic orientation: “Our clients expect holistic transaction advice geared to commercial objectives. We meet this need in cooperation with the experts of KPMG AG Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft through multidisciplinary teams with sector experience. Cilem Aksu-Aflatoon will be able to support this strategy excellently with her relevant experience,” explains Dr. Christian Hensel, who heads a Corporate/M&A team at KPMG Law in Nuremberg and Stuttgart.
