A new item this week: Borenius & Kemppinen corner. Each week Tulkinghorn will profile lawyers from this delightfully bonkers Finnish firm (note: make certain to look at the Latvia site), beginning today with the delightful Zane Krecere.

As her online biography puts it: “Looking at this tiny and womanly being it is hard to imagine that she has consciously and voluntary (sic) chosen one of the most complicated and entangled fields of the law – tax law.” Well done Zane, you tiny woman you!

More on Zane? Why not? “Zane has chosen to live in a beautiful world of internal and external beauty, where fragrances and aromas are of importance, however the uppermost value is harmonious relations with the closest people.” Of course she has. Who wouldn’t? More next time…
