Practice Groups

Bratschi lives according to the motto of offering its knowledge and experience on a networked and cross-regional basis for the benefit of its clients. The following areas of expertise serve to consolidate the special competences of our law firm in a transparent manner. The attorneys pool their extensive specialist knowledge and wealth of experience in our Practice Groups. We keep ourselves continuously up to date and publish regularly.

Art Law

Art is primarily something that inspires and for which legal issues do not immediately spring to mind. Nevertheless, there are many links between art and law. Issues concerning contract law as well as copyright law, ownership structures and expert opinions are primarily at the fore when acquiring works of art. On top of this, questions can also arise concerning insurance protection, national and international lending and rights of use. We advise art collectors, galleries, auctioneers, museums and investors on legal issues.

In the fine arts we also advise event organizers and institutions from the fields of theater, concert, literature, dance and opera and support artistic and cultural projects.
