"This initiative unites experienced professionals who support companies at every stage of their expansion, and I am proud to witness it come to fruition."

With a client base throughout Europe, in addition to clients from Asia, Latin America and the United States, Ziegler represents a wide range of businesses and investors in connection with mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, private equity, joint ventures and transactions involving the transfer of intellectual property and real estate. He has extensive experience in providing legal representation to start-up companies, particularly in the software and space-tech industries, from inception to exit. Ziegler frequently advises businesses and their executives on executive compensation, international taxation and immigration matters.
