Firm overview

We accompany entrepreneurs and companies in all tax matters in the national and international environment. We already have the civil law implementation in mind during the planning phase.

As certified tax experts, we are practitioners with a quality certificate. A special guarantee for quality in tax consulting is experience. We have a great deal of that.

We advise clients on a variety of business law issues at all levels (planning and implementation). Since we are lawyers and tax experts, we have both legal and fiscal aspects in mind. We are used to thinking not only as lawyers, but also as entrepreneurs.

We advise clients in all aspects of private and public binding law, from planning through project development, construction, acquisition, financing and operation, to the sale of real estate.

Our clients have an experienced notary for comprehensive services. As a result of the approval in the cantons of Basel-Stadt and Basel-Landschaft, we can handle all land register transactions in these cantons.
