Company Profile

Team Steinegger Rechtsanwälte

We afford our clients competent and personal counselling for finding comprehensive solutions. A material part of the added value lies in information processing: we turn knowledge into benefits. We pay particular attention to the timely performance of our mandates.

Our services comprise legal advice and care, including legal representation before authorities, courts and arbitration tribunals.

Efficient case management is the basis and the distinctive trait of our work method. Our wide spectrum of contacts and co-operation with other professions often prove valuable when it comes to finding amicable solutions in favour of our clients. This especially applies to the field of medicine and law. Our mandates are performed by experts, specialised in the relevant fields.

The location of our law firm and the composition of our team has allowed for close relations with federal and cantonal administrations. Our international network ensures quick contact with foreign lawyers and authorities.
