Chambers Europe 2026: In-depth Overview Litigation: Switzerland Facilitates Taking of Evidence in Cross-border Civil Proceedings
Urs Feller and Martin Heisch contributed the Switzerland chapter to the "Chambers In-depth Overview: Litigation". The authors analyse Switzerland’s new legal framework facilitating the taking of evidence in cross-border civil proceedings. Particular emphasis is placed on the simplified rules for remote witness examinations and voluntary document production, as well as the continued relevance of Article 271 SCC in practice.

How to find us
Practice areas
IP & IT
Innovation ensures growth: that’s what every export-oriented SME, every large multi-national company experiences. Unfortunately, all too often successful research and development attracts imitators who copy innovations illegally thereby saving the costs associated with their production – to the detriment of the inventor. We advise public and private companies on media and intellectual property issues, draft contracts and manage litigation. We also have plenty of experience in the licensing of rights to films and sports broadcasts. Another focus of our activities is information technology (IT) law.
