We are pleased to announce that Froriep joins us as not only as a member but also as a legal partner. In other words, if we'll ever get into legal hot water, we now have someone fighting on our side. Of course, all BAS members are welcome to use their services. If you're worried about high charges, it's comforting to know that it's best practice in this industry not to charge for the first, brief introduction meeting during which the lawyer checks if he can be of any help at all.

Froriep, founded in 1966, is a Swiss law firm with offices in Zurich, Zug and Geneva as well as an international presence in London and Madrid. The firm boasts a large cultural diversity within its team of professionals, not to mention an always-present entrepreneurial spirit.
