Bär & Karrer was repeatedly awarded Switzerland Law Firm of the Year by the most important international legal ranking agencies in recent years.

At Bär & Karrer, we believe that our people are our most valuable asset. We are committed to providing an inspiring and supportive work environment where everyone can thrive. Every employee contributes to the success of the company with their expertise, performance, and commitment. As a forward-thinking employer, we prioritize a positive working atmosphere, modern workplaces, and strong cross-location
collaboration between our teams. We are convinced that this is the foundation for providing our clients with first-class advice and support.

To support our employees, we offer attractive working conditions and various opportunities for personal development within a modern compensation system.

The law firm Bär & Karrer and its employees fulfil their social responsibility in various ways. This is reflected, for example, in numerous personal and firm-wide commitments to charitable and not-for-profit organisations, but also in a long-standing tradition of providing our legal services free of charge - i.e. pro bono - on a case-by-case basis if this serves a good cause. Our pro bono mandates range from supporting needy individuals and families, to advising small businesses in financial difficulties, to providing pro bono services to organisations working in the public interest. It goes without saying that we apply the same high standards of due diligence to our pro bono mandates as we do to our other client work.

Some examples of our pro bono mandates:

• ETH Foundation Zurich
• Human Rights Watch
• La Maison de Tara
• Room to Read
• Board of Trustees USZ Foundation
• Swisscontact
• Swisstransplant
• University of St. Gallen, Law and Economics
• University of Zurich, Department of Economics
• University Hospital Zurich
• Zoe4Life
