Corporate specialist Gerhard Holzhacker leads the firm that bears his name. The one-partner practice offers a broad range of services in the general financial and corporate area.
The leading lights at Grabher Schallert Dür are the three name partners: trusts, restructuring and banking specialist Johannes Grabher; banking and contracts partner Johannes Schallert and M&A and capital markets focused Johannes Dür.
The firm differentiates itself from competitors by its primary focus on financial and corporate (as opposed to trust and funds) and by the fact that it has no official link-up with a fiduciary firm. The latter is, in the firm's view, a pitch to pick up work on the back of being independent and free of conflicts or links. Additionally, because its work in the trusts and funds area is more advisory, as opposed to formation or structuring, there is less need to have the additional administration support.
Transactional highlights last year included acting for a Swiss bank in relation to cross-border securities issues and for two subsidiaries of an international finance group on outsourcing arrangements. The firm also advised an IP holding company on its corporate structure and financing arrangements.
