Morgan Lewis has announced the addition of partner Salim Rahim to its Washington, DC office, further strengthening the firm’s industry-leading global tax practice. Previously practicing at Baker McKenzie, where he most recently chaired the Americas tax practice group, Salim regularly represents Fortune 500 companies on significant transfer pricing planning projects and disputes.
“Salim’s arrival bolsters our international tax capabilities at a critical time as multinational companies navigate an increasingly complex global tax landscape,” said Firm Chair Jami McKeon. “His extensive experience in international tax and transfer pricing, combined with a proven track record in high stakes transfer pricing disputes globally, will significantly enhance our ability to deliver integrated, strategic advice across jurisdictions.”
Salim advises clients on international tax and transfer pricing matters, with a particular focus on transfer pricing disputes. His practice centers on negotiating and securing advance pricing agreements for US- and non-US based multinational companies across a variety of industries including technology, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, automotive, luxury fashion, and financial services. In addition, Salim advises companies on Mutual Agreement Procedure proceedings by guiding multinational corporations through treaty-based dispute resolution to eliminate double taxation. He also advises companies on global supply chain restructuring matters.
“Salim’s experience advising on disputes, advance pricing agreements, and global supply chain restructuring matters will be invaluable to companies navigating today’s evolving global tax rules and enforcement priorities,” said Bart Bassett, leader of the firm’s global tax practice.
Morgan Lewis continues to expand its global tax platform through strategic additions across key markets, with Salim’s arrival following those of Alexios Hadji in New York, Daniel Hudson in Miami, Randall Thomas in Washington, DC, Andrew Callaghan in London, and Tamara Shepard in Boston.
