“Fabienne is a highly talented and dedicated lawyer with strong interpersonal skills. Having her alongside me while studying for the Swiss Bar Exam in 2012 was not only a key-factor to my successful claim for being admitted to the bar but has been beneficial to me ever since. I often discuss legal and business thoughts with Fabienne who has a remarkable talent of processing a large variety of complex problems by coming up with creative and sustainable solutions for both businesses as well as private clients. I look forward to keep working with Fabienne in the future.”
