Firm Overview:

Bär & Karrer is a leading Swiss law firm with more than 200 lawyers in Zurich, Geneva, Lugano, Zug, Basel and St. Moritz. The firm’s core business is advising clients on innovative and complex transactions and representing them in litigation, arbitration and regulatory proceedings. Clients range from multinational corporations to private individuals in Switzerland and around the world.


Advice that makes a difference is based on a unique mix of legal skills, interdisciplinary thinking, a deep understanding of family dynamics and generations of experience.

Our Private Clients Team has unparalleled expertise in advising clients worldwide on contentious and non-contentious matters, covering the full range of legal issues our clients face.

We advise and represent private clients and their families, entrepreneurs, family offices, closely held businesses, charitable organisations as well as service providers such as banks and trustees. Among the families we advise, many have relied on our firm's services for several decades, some of them now in the third generation.

Apart from our experience and legal expertise, our clients appreciate our responsiveness and our ability to understand family dynamics.

Matters we assist our clients with include:

  • Administration and executorship of complex estates
  • Art collections (tax and succession planning concerning art collections)
  • Philanthropy and the formation of charitable organisations, including governance and management aspects
  • Estate Planning
  • Trusts and Foundations
  • Estate & Trust Litigation
  • Real Estate planning and transactions
