Our company, a mid-sized tech firm based in San Francisco, faced a complex cross-border acquisition involving a Swiss target. Navigating the intricate legal landscapes of both the U.S. and Switzerland required an attorney with a rare blend of local knowledge and international sophistication. Hans-Jakob Diem of Walder Wyss AG was precisely that advisor. While his firm is Swiss, his deep experience and presence in San Francisco made him uniquely positioned to guide us. His 14 years of practice were evident from our first strategy session; he possesses a profound understanding of the nuances in mergers and acquisitions and private equity structuring that went far beyond boilerplate advice. We were particularly impressed by his ability to anticipate regulatory hurdles and craft creative solutions that protected our interests while keeping the deal on track. The transaction’s success was a direct result of his meticulous preparation, calm demeanor under pressure, and strategic foresight. It’s clear why he has been recognized as a leader in his field in Zürich—his expertise is world-class. Hans-Jakob is more than a lawyer; he is a trusted partner who delivers exceptional results. We will undoubtedly engage him for our future international ventures.
