PST Legal & Consulting is a Swiss commercial law firm providing cross-border legal advisory to international corporations, foundations, blockchain ventures, and wealthy private clients. Its practice spans 13 areas including FinTech/blockchain/crypto-asset regulation (FINMA licensing, ICOs, token sales, DeFi, DAOs, smart contracts), corporate law and M&A, financial and capital market law, tax law, real estate and construction law, labour and immigration law, compliance and criminal law, data protection and IP, notarial services, and private-client matters such as estate planning and art law. The firm is headquartered in Zug ("Crypto Valley") and is recognised in Chambers FinTech 2026 (Band 3) for Blockchain & Cryptocurrencies.

Product overview

PST Legal & Consulting is a law firm offering legal services, not a software product. The firm operates as a unified legal practice with 13 distinct service areas that clients access as an integrated offering. The portfolio spans corporate/commercial law (corporate law, M&A, tax, real estate), regulatory compliance (FinTech, anti-money laundering, data protection), dispute resolution (court, arbitration), private client services (estates, art, immigration), and specialized emerging technology advisory (blockchain, crypto, AI regulation). Services are tailored to each client engagement rather than sold as standalone software products or modules.
