Mr Tino Gaberthüel > Lenz & Staehelin > Zurich, Switzerland > Lawyer Profile

With capabilities across the financial services, chemical, life sciences and TMT sectors, Lenz & Staehelin utilises its bench strength to advise on public takeovers, private transactions and corporate governance matters. The team is recommended for its ‘experience, technical knowledge, commercial judgement and network among Swiss corporates’. Tino Gaberthüel and Andreas Rötheli co-helm the practice; the former is based in Zurich and the latter in Geneva. Stephan Erni is a strong choice for private equity and equity capital markets transactions, while Jacques Iffland is routinely engaged to handle transactions involving public companies. Matthias Wolf’s experience in the banking and financial sector further strengthens the practice, while Simone Ehrsam is trusted by clients from the public and private sectors.

A team noted for its ‘long standing experience’, Lenz & Staehelin’s capital markets team maintains a broad offering and is well-equipped to handle a range of issues such as equity transactions, offerings of bonds and exchange offers, among others. Alongside this, the team demonstrates particular proficiency in relation to derivatives. ‘Outstanding’ Jacques Iffland spearheads the Geneva practice, with ‘well-connected’ Patrick Schleiffer and Tino Gaberthüel jointly leading the firm’s Zurich office. Marcel Tranchet bolsters the practice with his considerable expertise regarding financing matters, securities offering and regulatory matters. Ariel Ben Hattar and Patrick Schärli are also recommended.
