About us
We and the others.
Pleasantly different. The market for lawyers has grown steadily in recent decades. What it doesn't need is more of the same. We stand out: our strength lies not in providing different services, but in providing services differently.
Good feeling. We provide high-quality services in a relaxed environment. Flexible, whenever you need help. Anywhere, no matter where you live. And at attractive, transparent conditions.
Employees. Our team is our strength. We rely on young, hungry and highly talented employees, whose development on a legal, entrepreneurial and personal level we enjoy promoting.
Technology. We achieve our goals using advanced technology. This starts with booking a meeting, which is best done online, continues with advice via video conference, no matter where you are, and ends with the fulfillment of orders using modern IT solutions, including artificial intelligence.
Open to the world. People matter to us. We are proud to have employees of different backgrounds and beliefs under one roof. This gives our clients the opportunity to communicate with our team in various languages at native level: German, English, Russian and Turkish.
International. Schmelz lawfirm is part of XLNC, an international network of lawyers, tax advisors and auditors based in Switzerland. This enables us to draw on 180 partner firms in more than 40 countries worldwide to effectively resolve our clients' cross-border issues.
Our Clients.
Our client base consists of private individuals as well as companies of all sizes: from young families having a marriage contract drawn up to buyers and sellers of houses or apartments, from start-ups to large companies.
Our reference clients include numerous companies, associations and foundations in the profit and non profit area, such as Rosenbauer International AG (a manufacturer of firefighting equipment listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange and a world leader in this field), the Austrian branch of the Friedrich Ebert Foundation, the Austrian branch of the Konrad Adenauer Foundation, the Austrian branch of the Heinrich Böll Foundation, the Austrian branch of the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation or the Verband der österreichischen Tafeln.
We also represent numerous clients in the medical and pharmaceutical sector, including physicians, the international associations European Society of Musculoskeletal Radiology and European Society of Urogenital Radiology, the pharmaceutical company OrphaCare GmbH, and VertretungsNetz (one of the four adult protection associations commissioned by the Austrian Ministry of Justice).
Excellent quality.
