Overview

Continuity and Vision

 

The firm was established in 1907 by two prominent attorneys and has now grown to more than thirty lawyers fully dedicated to their clients.

Multinationals, high net worth individuals and entrepreneurs have patronised our firm for more than four generations.

The firm has also been active in the field of banking and financial law as well as corporate and commercial matters, developing a strong advisory practice.

We have been mindful of the necessity to adapt to changes in political and economic environments on national and international levels. Our practice in such domains as estate planning and cross-border transactions has placed particular emphasis on the capacity to keep track of developments, and anticipate changes before they occur. The firm also advises on all aspects of investing in Switzerland including incorporation procedures, registration with local authorities, negotiation of tax rulings, application for work permits or advice on passive investments.

Borel & Barbey is equally active in the field of litigation and arbitration as well as mutual assistance in civil and criminal matters.

We see continuity and vision as both a long-term commitment to our clients and the ambition of the partners and associates to provide the best legal services.
