WILD Rechtsanwalt AG has five offices in Switzerland. The office in Basel and the head office in Sarnen focus especially on expats seeking legal advice and support with questions concerning tax, rental matters, residency, inheritance law, social security law and family law. They have set up a special homepage to provide information about their services offered: lexpat.ch. The law office also maintains an online platform for juridical persons who want to relocate in or to Switzerland, or open a branch there (domizil4u.ch). “We establish companies in Switzerland, offer domicile and rental agreements, and consult on legal concerns ranging from corporate law, espe-
cially M&A and shareholder agreements, to tax-related topics,” says office founder Werner Wild. WILD Rechtsanwalt AG works with one US and two Swiss tax consultants. “Above that our team includes a notary and a lawyer, whose main focus lies on litigation in civil law and administrative law. Another expert lawyer is specialised in the field of international business law.” Founder Werner Wild established the law firm in 1984, after he had worked in the reinsurance business and as Swiss representative of a German audit firm for several years. He also served as judge and president of the canton Obwalden’s appeals committee for tax issues. In 2007 Wild added an Executive MBA to his already vast range of experience.
WILD Rechtsanwalt AG has close connections to established Swiss companies. This includes taking over board memberships or responsibilities as managing directors. “This is one of our core competencies,” says Wild, who has been board member of numerous Swiss companies. It is the ideal combination of legal expertise and an understanding of the business world. Overall the experts at WILD Rechtsanwalt AG advise and accompany individual persons as well as domestic and foreign, small and medium sized companies.
