Planning Law

Planning law regulates aspects of building law, local planning, spatial planning, use and design planning as well as the representation of interests of developers and the community. Accordingly, planning law is extremely diverse and encompasses various legal aspects that must be observed.

Swiss building law is known for its high complexity, as it is primarily regulated at cantonal level. For this reason, it is important to seek competent legal advice in all planning law matters at an early stage, so that any questions can be answered, and the next steps can be planned.

Projects in the field of planning law often combine public and private interests and affect a multitude of people - the employees of the companies involved, the respective city administration, residents and more. Furthermore, these projects can also have an international dimension, further complicating all legal aspects. In these cases, it is important that the legal regulations in all jurisdictions involved are respected and followed. It often makes sense for the lawyers involved to consult with colleagues in the other jurisdictions. In these cases, the clients of our law firm benefit from our international network and our numerous contacts to legal experts all over the world.
