Sports Law

Sports law is of great relevance to Switzerland, as it is home to a number of international sports federations. Athletes also prefer Switzerland as a place of residence because of its many advantages - a high standard of living, advantageous taxation, excellent educational institutions, a wide range of leisure activities and more.

Sports law includes aspects of labor law, commercial law, corporate law, criminal law, administrative law, association law, European law and more. The focus here is on athletes and sports associations.

Accordingly, sports law is extremely diverse and requires the expertise of experienced lawyers. It is not uncommon for several areas of law to be involved in sports law issues and questions, so that a broad legal knowledge is required. The lawyers in our firm have in-depth knowledge of the sector and interdisciplinary training, so that they are always able to offer our clients individually tailored and targeted solutions.
