Seminar

The demands on lawyers and legal professionals are constantly increasing. Professional education in lesser-known areas of legal practice is becoming ever more important and can often determine the success or failure of a mandate.

 

Content

This seminar clarifies the structure and composition of a balance sheet for all practitioners working in legal practice. Lawyers also need to be able to make accurate risk assessments in their advice and work. By the end of the seminar, participants will be able to correctly read and analyse balance sheets.

The seminar imparts fundamental knowledge of accounting and financial statement analysis that lawyers need in their practice. A homogeneous group of participants allows concentration on the specific interests of attendees. The special presentation of topics by three different accounting specialists and the use of practical examples lead participants to successful learning outcomes.


Key Topics:

  • Fundamentals and methodology of accounting
  • Legal foundations
  • Accounting and financial statement analysis


Target Group

Practitioners from law firms, corporate lawyers, staff in legal and tax departments, tax and audit assistants with a legal background.

The regulations on the Liechtenstein trust have been included since the original version of the Persons and Companies Act from 1926, making Liechtenstein the only continental European legal system with a long-standing trust law tradition.

Similar to foundations, the trust is influenced by global trends and international standards. Therefore, it is important for Liechtenstein’s practice to engage deeply with these new orientations and international trends and standards in order to remain competitive in the often-mentioned competition among legal systems. The Liechtenstein Trust Conference is dedicated to this in-depth engagement.

The Liechtenstein legal system is undergoing significant change for many reasons. Comprehensive revisions and thorough overhauls of long-established legal foundations are now almost a regular agenda item.

 

Here, the Chair of Company, Foundation and Trust Law sees itself as a partner for practice. With our “Lunch & Learn” series, we offer practitioners in Liechtenstein the opportunity to engage briefly—during their lunch break—with the impact of legislative changes or other legal topics, and to acquire the necessary tools to quickly and correctly apply these new insights in their professional daily work.
