MONTREAL, October 30, 2026 - Crowe BGK is pleased to announce that Reuben Abitbol will join the firm as a Partner in its Tax practice, effective November 23, 2026. With a background spanning tax advisory, business leadership and private client services, Reuben will bring valuable insight into the complex needs of business owners and high-net-worth families.
Reuben practiced tax law for many years at a national law firm, advising business owners and families on tax planning, corporate reorganizations, trusts, and estate planning matters. He then served as Chief Legal Officer and Managing Director of a private real estate group, gaining practical experience managing complex business, legal and financial affairs across both the U.S. and Canada.
Most recently, he founded his own legal practice, which serves as an outsourced family office for a select group of high-net-worth families, coordinating their tax, legal, real estate and estate planning affairs.
