Career Attorneys at Law
BGPartner is among the first law firms in Switzerland to be certified as a Great Place to Work.
Great Place to Work® Switzerland is an independent, global research and consulting institute that collects and analyzes data to assess workplace culture (https://www.greatplacetowork.ch/). The assessment is based on an anonymous survey of all employees, measuring credibility, respect, fairness, pride, and team spirit.
The certification process demonstrated that BGPartner’s workplace culture stands shoulder to shoulder with the best companies in Switzerland. Our survey scores consistently and significantly exceed the representative average of companies surveyed across Switzerland.
In particular, BGPartner surpassed the average scores of the Swiss Best Workplaces™ — the top 15 Swiss companies with 20 to 49 employees as ranked by Great Place to Work® Switzerland — in areas that matter most to us: team spirit and pride.
BGPartner is proud of this certification and extends heartfelt gratitude to its employees for their trust and dedication. This recognition motivates us to continuously enhance our workplace culture, making BGPartner an even better place to work.
Teamspirit – the essence of BGPartner’s work
At BGPartner, we believe that satisfied and committed employees benefit the entire team and ultimately our clients. Working for us does not only mean to deal with legal issues, but also to focus on
people and team spirit as well as independence and trust. We actively live out this collegiality: Over the years, we have established a number of traditional events such as our annual ski weekend in Zermatt, the jazz brunch on the Gurten hill, after-work events or our swap n' lunches.

Growing together - learn from the experience of our Partners
You need advice in a complex case or a contact person in any other matter? The direct and uncomplicated exchange with our partners is very important to us. We support our lawyers with advice and assistance in a matter that they not only are able to provide top performances, but also to constantly develop themselves further
and find fulfilment and pleasure in their work. We are interact with one another in an informal and friendly manner over all stages. It is thus not surprising that we accompanied some of our former trainees on their way into the partnership. With us, nothing stands in the way of your personal development and a steep learning curve.
Negotiation – become a negotiation expert
Apart from law, negotiation is an integral part of our identity. We are convinced that special knowledge of the relevant negotiation tactics is of fundamental importance – not only in everyday business, but also in private life. As a lawyer you will be trained in the field of negotiation and you will be able to build up and deepen your
negotiation skills in line with our guiding principle “Mastering Law and Negotiation”. We help our clients to better understand their own and their opponents’ position, to change perspective and to understand the entire dynamic of negotiation situations. In this way not only new, creative options can be developed, but also one’s own interests can be communicated effectively and pursued more sustainably.
