In memoriam

The network lost two of its members this year. Their counsel, and the way they gave it, stays with the people who worked alongside them.

Daniel Reisner

Partner, Herzog Fox & Neeman
Israel

Colleagues across the network remember his judgement, his generosity with his time, and the standard he set for everyone who worked alongside him.

Şafak Herdem

1982 to 2026

Founder and Managing Partner, HERDEM Attorneys-at-Law
Turkey

He is remembered for the warmth he brought to the network and for the work he did to build Turkey's trade compliance community.
