unyer

In 2021, the independent law firms Luther and Fidal joined forces to create unyer, a global organization of leading international law firms. The 2 founding members were first joined by the Italian law firm Pirola Pennuto Zei & Associati and then by the Austrian firm KWR.

unyer is a game changer with a new approach to advising businesses, going beyond the law to offer services such as consulting and artificial intelligence. Its sector-based approach enables it to anticipate trends and developments in every market and adapt its solutions to the requirements and needs of its clients. 

unyer takes a pioneering approach to supporting its clients, offering scalable and innovative services and solutions to anticipate their needs.

unyer is made up of more than 2,550 lawyers and professionals in more than 14 countries in Europe and Asia, generating a turnover of more than €650 million. 
The organization has one exclusive member per country, all sharing a common vision. The members maintain their independence and strong position in their local market. This new organization takes the form of a Swiss Verein.

unyer has an ambition to develop rapidly in the top 20 world economies.

WTS Global's clients include multinational companies, international mid-size companies as well as private clients and family offices.

The member firms of WTS Global are strong local players in their home market who are united by the ambition of building a common tax practice. WTS Global develops the tax leaders of the future and anticipates the new digital tax world, including the digitization of the tax function and data processing tools.
