Office Profile

In 1990, attorney Peter Rütimann set up his own business and founded what was then called "Peter Rütimann Lawyers' Office". Our law firm has grown continuously over the past 30 years, and today we are known, rooted and well-established as the law firm "Rütimann Rechtsanwälte" in the house "Iminnen Lind" between the town hall and the district court in Winterthur.

We consciously describe ourselves as a classic general law firm, because we want to remain a law firm that you can turn to with all your legal questions at any time, regardless of your rank and name or the size of your wallet.

Despite our self-image as a general law firm, we have specialized in real estate and construction law. However, our legal specialization also relates to all areas of inheritance law and - as befits a general law firm - to divorce and family law. According to a survey by the magazine "Bilanz" in 2021, we are among the 25 most recommended law firms in Switzerland in all three areas of activity. You can find all our areas of activity and the possibility of reaching your goal in these areas through mediation on our search bar at the top of our website.

Thanks to our law firm profile, we look after private individuals as well as commercial enterprises, companies or construction consortiums. We share the everyday life of our clients and are committed to a fair, satisfying divorce that you can look back on with as little bad feeling as possible, as well as to a development project or the realization of a volunteer-run adventure playground for children.

Lawyer Peter Rütimann's many years of involvement in local politics and local government has meant that we also provide professional support to local governments. In addition, Peter Rütimann is repeatedly given the opportunity to contribute to good community leadership and community organization with coaching and mediation assignments.

As a result, all of our activities are always about making a committed contribution to a successful life and good coexistence in our society.

divorce and separation

Every separation challenges both partners involved on all levels.
Where the specific circumstances allow, we consider it our duty to work with you towards an agreement that you can always look back on with fond memories of staying true to your values ​​through these difficult times.

Our legal services

 

  • Supervision and drafting of separation agreements
  • Representation of interests in divorce and matrimonial protection proceedings
  • Contesting/altering divorce decrees or marital protections
  • Implementation of divorce, separation and marital protection decisions

 

The possibilities of mediation

When drafting a divorce agreement, mediation is very well suited for a fair reconciliation of interests.

The prerequisite for this is that both divorce partners want to get involved in fair negotiation of an individual solution. It is also helpful if both divorce partners are used to tackling problems as equals and in a solution-oriented manner.
