Our client base includes global banks, leading technology firms and large international sports organisations.
The team has decades of experience advising and representing clients in corporate, finance, competition and commercial matters before commercial and other courts in Switzerland, including the Swiss Federal Supreme Court, the Federal Criminal Court, the Federal Administrative Court, and administrative, regulatory and criminal authorities and courts.
