Philadelphia, PA – October 14, 2019 – Pepper Hamilton LLP announced today that Saba Ashraf has joined the firm as a partner in the Tax and Private Clients Practice Group, resident in the Philadelphia office.

This experience will prove highly valuable to Pepper’s clients,” said partner Joan C. Arnold, chair of the Tax and Private Clients Practice Group. “We are thrilled to welcome Saba to our team.”
