She handles all areas of contract law and has a rich practical experience. A perfect contract is always systematically and logically structured. It provides the starting point for your cooperation with your customers or business partners. The interests of each party must be balanced carefully, and clear worded that future disputes are prevented.
Myriam Brunner-Ryhiner offers comprehensive and thorough legal advice during contract negotiations and in legal disputes. This includes purchase agreements, cooperation agreements, employment contracts and general terms and conditions. The specific and individual design of contracts and documents with national and international relevance, as well as careful and reliable representation both in and out of court make her an indispensable partner.

In these situations, Myriam Brunner-Ryhiner is available to assist in determining the cause, responsibility and scope of such defects and in enforcing any claims. She also defends construction workers who are often confronted by unjustified claims from developers.
