Private Clients

Next-generation thinking that makes the most of now

Timely advice today. Timeless benefits for future generations. Our Private Clients group is proud of the longstanding relationships we forge with high-net-worth individuals. We’re experts in estate planning and proactive tax strategies, working across all family, inheritance and immigration law. We unpick complexity and navigate compliance, adding real value for the long term.

As one of the largest Private Client teams in Switzerland, we bring decades of experience to your wealth and estate planning. We act as executors and tax advisors, as well as trustees through our own trust companies in Switzerland and Guernsey. We can advise on the formation and management of charitable organisations. And always act quickly and sensitively in dispute resolution. From our position at the heart of the firm, we draw on a wide range of expertise – advocating for your best interests at every turn.

Testament to a team honed over three generations of lawyers, our partners – and practice – regularly appear in the highest legal rankings. Our network spans continents – a global backbone leading to always-responsive, sound advice.
