Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘Dominic Müller and Anja Affolter - highly analytical, just very smart people!'
- 'They do not simply act as lawyers, they go far beyond that and evaluate different strategies.’
‘Dominic Müller and Anja Affolter: exceptionally knowledgeable, very much to the point, brilliant. I am happy that they are on "my side" and would fear to have them on the other side of the bar.’
‘Anja Affolter and Dominique Müller work very cost effectively, always having the client's interests at the forefront. Both have a distinctly empathetic customer approach that is unfortunately rare in this industry.’
‘The L&S team have been a great partner to us to assist us with our Swiss employment and regulatory issues over the last few years. They give commercial and robust advice and are not afraid to give us a view/recommendation rather than just setting out the law.’
