What Blum&Grob Attorneys at Law does

Blum&Grob Attorneys at Law (legal entity: Blum & Grob Rechtsanwälte AG) is a Swiss business law firm headquartered at Neumühlequai 6, 8001 Zürich, founded in 2008 through a partnership between BLUM Attorneys at Law and the existing Blum&Grob practice. The firm employs 55 professionals, including 12 partners and counsels, and operates across 17 practice areas covering Corporate/M&A, Tax Law, Litigation & Arbitration, Financial Services & Regulatory, FINMA Enforcement, Aviation & Asset Finance, White-Collar Crime & Compliance, Philanthropy & Foundations, Intellectual Property & Competition, Real Estate & Construction, and Digital & Data, among others. The firm serves two primary client segments: medium-sized and large enterprises (including publicly listed Swiss corporates) requiring commercial law advisory, M&A, transaction support, and dispute resolution, and high-net-worth private clients seeking estate planning, inheritance, philanthropy, and tax structuring advice.

The firm generates revenue through fee-based legal services rendered on a mandate-by-mandate basis, without publicly disclosed pricing. Client acquisition is driven by partner-led engagement, referrals, directory rankings, and the firm's exclusive Swiss membership in the Ally Law worldwide lawyers' association, which provides cross-border mandate referrals. The firm's marketing is content-driven, anchored on a regularly updated website with legal alerts, publications, a newsletter (news.blumgrob.ch), a LinkedIn presence, and speaking engagements at international conferences such as the IBA International Private Client Tax Conference. Named clients include Siemens Healthineers (advised on the Series G financing of BiognoSYS AG) and ASMALLWORLD AG (advised on its SIX Swiss Exchange listing). The firm is privately held as a Swiss Aktiengesellschaft, with no external venture or private equity investment, and is owned and controlled by its managing partners. No proprietary technology platform, AI/ML capabilities, or software products are described; the offering is entirely bespoke professional services.
