Team members

A Team You Know

Eiger has a team of lawyers admitted to practice in six jurisdictions and the major players of the global economy spanning three continents. This enables us to well understand the needs and concerns of our clients with various legal and cultural backgrounds. Eiger was founded in 2003, though back then under a different name, and nearly all of the Eiger team has worked together for several years as the former Taipei and Shanghai offices of a noted Swiss firm.
