Private law covers all the rules governing relations between private individuals and corporate entities. It encompasses a wide range of disciplines, such as family law (marriage contracts, divorce), civil liability law, in which we defend your rights in the event of an accident or claim, or contract law, which includes, for example, the drafting of lease agreements or company contracts.
In contrast to private law, public law governs legal relations between the State and private individuals or legal entities. Public law establishes the rules and principles governing the structure, functions and powers of public authorities, as well as the rights and obligations of citizens and entities subject to Swiss jurisdiction. More specifically, the term “criminal law” encompasses all the laws and regulations governing the commission and punishment of criminal offences in Switzerland.
