Dr Jodok Wicki
Professional Biography
Jodok Wicki concentrates on dispute resolution, litigation, and international arbitration. He led our firm’s dispute resolution group for many years and is involved in the dispute resolution group of CMS. Jodok maintains an active practice of state court litigation and appellate proceedings in a variety of commercial matters, such as purchase and sales agreements, joint ventures, post-M&A disputes, director and officer and auditor liability, and product liability. He has also a particular focus on insurance matters and qualified as a Certified Specialist of the Swiss Bar Association for Torts and Insurance Law. In international arbitration proceedings, Jodok Wicki is appearing as counsel and also regularly sits as arbitrator. He is on the panels of arbitrators of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (HKIAC), and the Pacific International Arbitration Centre (PIAC).
Jodok Wicki started his practice as a lawyer in 1994 and became a partner in 2000. He was Managing Partner of our firm from 2016 to 2020. In 1996 and 1997, he worked as a foreign associate with law firms in New York and in Sydney.
“During my international sports career as an Olympic sailor before starting the legal practice, I learnt the importance of going the extra mile in order to succeed. It is the voluntarism I learnt then which now benefits and is appreciated by my clients.“
“I value Jodok’s legal and strategic thinking. He does not limit his counselling to the legal aspects of a claim. Where appropriate, he highlights non-legal aspects such as strategic and business considerations as well.“
