For decades, our team has closely accompanied and advised private individuals and entrepreneurs in family and inheritance law matters. Our experience and the fact that our specialized lawyers often continue working for the same clients for many years has established a relationship of trust and longevity with our clients. The expertise of our team members in other legal areas also allows us to provide comprehensive advice in complex situations, to implement succession and asset arrangements and, if necessary, to represent your interests in court. In international cases, our team can rely on a global network of specialists.
