RUOSS VÖGELE advises foreign investors on the sale of their Swiss real estate company to a professional real estate investor (share deal). The main asset of the sold real estate company is a rented commercial property located in Switzerland.

RUOSS VÖGELE wins proceedings before the Commercial Court of the Canton of Zurich on behalf of a former member of the Board of Directors to defend against claims for liability under company law asserted by a creditor in the bankruptcy of a company limited by shares. The plaintiff brought an action against the sole member of the Board of Directors and the auditors of the bankrupt and in particular charged them with delaying bankruptcy. The court dismissed the action in its entirety, in particular due to the plaintiff's failure to substantiate the alleged damage and the defendant's Board of Directors' detailed contestation of the individual positions of the asserted loss. The plaintiff is obliged to pay the court fee and to pay compensation to the defendant director and the auditors. The plaintiff accepts the judgment and waives an appeal to the Federal Supreme Court.

RUOSS VÖGELE represents a director against his former employer in the enforcement of claims regarding salary and shares in profits as well as in the defence against claims for damages. A settlement can be reached for all matters in dispute by way of negotiation.
