ABOUT THE LAW FIRM WALDMANN PETITPIERRE

WALDMANN PETITPIERRE is a law firm of Attorneys-at-law and Notaries in Basel-Stadt and Baselland. Since 1953, our head office is situated at the Marktplatz in Basel.

The law firm was founded in 1953 by Dr. Jürg Heinz Faesch and Dr. Werner Blumer at the Marktplatz in Basel, where it still holds residence. The partnership was soon joined by Dr. Peter Von der Mühll, at which time the law firm also became a notary's office. This trio then worked to together unchanged in composition until Andreas Waldmann entered the firm in 1982. In 1987 they were joined by Dr. Heinz Lukas Faesch, the son of the founder of the firm, who since 2004 has been President of Basel-Stadt Criminal Court.

When Daniel Olstein joined the firm in 1991 the name of wfp Waldmann Faesch & Partner was adopted, which made it the first legal practice in the location to have a company name.

In 2000 and 2004, respectively, Bettina Waldmann und Javier Ferreiro joined the firm as Partners. Since then, WALDMANN PETITPIERRE, as it was named from 2013, developed into an internationally active law firm rooted in the traditions of Basel. Today, the team consists of 12 attorneys/notaries.
