Evalaw, the Lucerne-based practice led by Rechtsanwaltin Eva Soldati-Schnyder, has opened recruitment for several legal and coordination roles, the firm confirmed in May 2026. The hiring push follows steady demand for cross-border inheritance, arbitration, and corporate advisory work in Central Switzerland.
Roles Available
The firm is seeking professionals to support client intake, matter coordination, and specialist legal work under direct supervision from lead counsel. Published descriptions point to openings aligned with three coordinator functions already visible on the Evalaw team page:
- Corporate and transaction support: coordination of M&A files, startup advisory, and commercial contract matters.
- International law and arbitration: assistance with cross-border disputes, tribunal preparation, and enforcement steps in Switzerland.
- International client intake: onboarding for clients based outside Switzerland who require counsel on Swiss legal questions, including residence and immigration-linked matters.
What the Firm Looks For
Evalaw describes itself as a focused practice rather than a large full-service directory. Candidates are expected to work closely with named counsel, maintain file discipline, and handle sensitive information with discretion. Language skills matter: the firm serves clients in German, English, Portuguese, and Arabic, with English commonly used for international matters.
Experience in Swiss civil law, corporate transactions, or dispute resolution is preferred, though the firm also considers applicants with strong administrative backgrounds in regulated professional environments.
Location and Application Process
Positions are based in Lucerne, with the main office at Grendelstrasse 21, 6004 Luzern. Interested applicants are directed to submit enquiries through the contact channels listed on evalaw.ch, where separate forms exist for client matters, employment applications, and partnership proposals.
The recruitment announcement does not specify a fixed headcount, but the firm indicated it is building capacity to handle a growing pipeline of international inheritance and commercial files without diluting the single-point-of-contact model clients expect.
