BATLINER WANGER BATLINER Rechtsanwälte AG is one of the largest law firms in Liechtenstein, offering legal advice and representation before Liechtenstein courts and authorities. The firm originated in 2002 from the merger of the practices of Dr. iur. Dr. Dr. h.c. Gerard Batliner and Dr. Martin Batliner with Dr. Ralph Wanger and Dr. Christian Batliner, and has since grown through the admission of additional partners in 2008, 2014 and 2023, building on several decades of individual and collective legal experience in the country.
The firm evolved from a predominantly litigation-focused practice into a full-service firm that maintains genuine specializations and structured practice-groups in key areas of law. It regularly handles mandates of significant economic importance and international scope and has contributed to the development of Liechtenstein law through numerous precedent-setting decisions, earning a reputation for technical depth, strategic insight and reliable advocacy.
BATLINER WANGER BATLINER approaches client service with careful selectivity and a big-picture orientation, assessing mandates not only on legal merit but also on broader commercial and strategic implications. The firm is firmly rooted in Liechtenstein, cultivates cooperative relationships with local authorities and courts, and works closely with expert partners when integrated solutions are required, remaining actively engaged with clients throughout complex or difficult phases to secure practical, durable results.
