One boutique firm,
built for empires under pressure
The tax structuring for lives that combine mobility, wealth and responsibility.
I am Delphine Parigi, international tax lawyer and founder of DPZ, a boutique firm dedicated to heirs, founders, artists and international leaders whose lives do not fit in standard boxes.
With my team, we work on complex international trajectories , on building and transmitting empires, on securing French tax life over time for international families, family offices and high‑net‑worth clients, and on defending clients in audits and criminal tax situations, where wealth, reputation and justice all sit at the same table.
For us, tax is not a formality. It is the architecture that protects your freedom, your legacy and your expansion across borders.
My story, as an
international tax lawyer
I started my career in large international firms, learning the mechanics of corporate and international tax from the inside. Paris La Défense, New York, M&A, cross‑border deals for global groups and investors: I saw how powerful tax can be when it is handled with skill — and how violent it can become when something goes wrong.
In 2011, I created DPZ because I wanted another way to practice: more presence, more truth, more long‑term commitment. No endless timesheets, no disappearing act when a file becomes “too sensitive”, no client treated as a line in a spreadsheet.
Since then, I have accompanied ultra‑high‑net‑worth clients, family groups, founders and public figures in France and abroad, often in moments they would never post about: audits, criminal tax risk, family conflicts, relocations, transmissions that can make or break a dynasty.
What my clients usually feel when we work together is simple: you are not alone, you are not crazy, and there is a clean way out that does not destroy what matters to you.
How we actually work together
We do not “manage a tax year”. We hold a trajectory with you.
Our work is not only to secure a tax position. It is to make sovereignty possible, reduce mental load and turn complexity into a peaceful structure.
What I believe about tax advice
I do not believe in mechanical, defensive, dehumanised tax advice. It has no future.
At DPZ, we stand for something else: advice based on presence, judgement and refinement made to be alive, elegant, almost glamorous in its effects. The joy comes from clarity, structured sovereignty and peace with your own choices.
