Profile
Years after studying together at the University of Berne and then holding various professional positions in Berne, Zurich, Thun, Bellinzona, Lausanne, Granada, and Singapore, we have joined forces and decided to build a dynamic law firm which, in addition to legal advice and litigation, provides tailor-made guidance and support for whatever legal counsel you need.
As lawyers and digital natives, and thanks to the use of electronic tools and means of communication, we can adapt to your approach and integrate ourselves into your processes. Thus, we form a straightforward, efficient, cost-conscious, and solutions-oriented team with you.
For us, a trust-filled relationship with our clients is paramount. We strive for your success, and will invest all our energy, professional skills, and tactical abilities into that outcome.
Our focus on employment law issues and litigation qualifies us as the ideal contact point both for HR managers and employees. On the solid basis of our broad experience, we also advise our clients in all other legal areas: we support them in negotiations, and we represent them before the authorities and in court.
Values
Trust:
You can count on us; we are on your side.
Our Passion:
Your goal is our goal. To achieve it, we will do everything we can with a cool head and a clear conscience.
Solutions:
We want to find and implement sound and sustainable solutions to your problems with you, following an entrepreneurial and pragmatic approach. We also consider the psychological implications that often have a part in legal disputes.
Innovation:
We move with the times. We know and use the digital services that simplify your life and ours.
Cosmopolitan, but rooted in Switzerland:
We speak your language: the language of everyday life, the legal language, and both foreign and local languages. That’s why it’s so easy to talk to us.
