Bratschi Ltd. is a leading Swiss law firm for employment and public personnel law, with a practice noted for its exceptional breadth, senior expertise, and continued growth. Advice is offered on the full spectrum of employment matters, combining day-to-day advisory work with complex litigation, arbitration, and transaction-related mandates. The department is co-headed by the highly regarded Angela Hensch.

The firm advises employers across a broad range of industries, including financial services, industrial and manufacturing groups, healthcare and life sciences, technology, and public sector bodies.

The team regularly advises on terminations, termination agreements, restrictive covenants, and employment-related intellectual property issues.

Bratschi Ltd. is particularly well known for its strength in complex restructurings and employment aspects of corporate transactions. The firm also has a strong track record in collective labour agreements and staff leasing matters, notably contract staffing and personnel leasing to Switzerland. A key differentiator is the firm’s strong public sector employment practice, advising on civil service law and other public personnel matters, which is rare among larger Swiss law firms.
