Lawyer Rankings

Switzerland > Real estate

Capitalising on its strong presence across both Zurich and Geneva, Schellenberg Wittmer Ltd frequently handles complex and multi-faceted matters pertaining to international sales and the purchase of commercial real estate. Steered by Yves Jeanrenaud and Josef Caleff, the team is also particularly noted for its knowledge of hotels, offices and industrial premises, and is a suitable choice for an array of international companies and investors. Geneva-based Jeanrenaud’s arsenal of skills is comprised of real estate financing, structuring and commercial lease work, while Zurich-based Caleff’s core workload encompasses commercial leases, contractor agreements and development projects. Amanda Burnand Sulmoni and Katherine Bell are other names to note; the former’s wide-ranging expertise covers a stable of projects, agreements and disputes, and the latter is well-versed in disputes arising from commercial tenancy and lease agreements.
