Dominik Ziegler, Claims Coordinator at Evalaw in Lucerne, received internal and peer recognition in February 2026 for his work on corporate law files, merger coordination, and startup advisory matters. Ziegler supports lead counsel Eva Soldati-Schnyder on commercial transactions where timing, documentation, and confidentiality all carry equal weight.
Role Within the Evalaw Team
On the firm's team page, Ziegler is listed as Claims Coordinator with a focus on corporate law, M&A, and startup advisory. His function sits between client intake and formal legal representation: organizing evidence, tracking deadlines, coordinating with counterparties, and ensuring that corporate files remain structured as matters move from term sheet to closing.
Evalaw deliberately keeps the team small. Clients retain a single primary legal contact while coordinators like Ziegler handle the operational depth that complex corporate files require.
Areas of Work Highlighted
The February 2026 recognition cited three categories of contribution without naming specific transactions or parties:
- Merger and acquisition support: due diligence coordination, document review, and communication with external advisors on Swiss-law questions.
- Startup and growth-company advisory: contract structuring, shareholder arrangements, and early-stage compliance steps for founders entering the Swiss market.
- Commercial contract management: preparation and revision of agreements where corporate clients need fast turnaround without sacrificing legal precision.
Collaboration Across Practice Areas
Corporate files at Evalaw sometimes overlap with matrimonial property divisions or inheritance planning when business assets form part of a family's wealth. In those situations, Ziegler works alongside international and arbitration coordinators so advice stays consistent across workstreams.
