Prager Dreifuss in Motion!
Apr 2011
On April 17, 2011 the running teams of Prager Dreifuss again took part in the annual Zurich Marathon, participating in the team run event covering the whole of the grueling but beautiful 42,195 km through the city and alongside the Lake of Zurich. The team effort showed marked progress compared to the previous year with the total time for the race by both teams improving by a healthy 30 minutes. This year, Team Prager Dreifuss 2 (consisting of Patrizia Kaufmann, Christian Renner, Christophe Raimondi and Robin Indermaur) beat their internal counterparts with a total time of 3 hours 33 minutes and 33 seconds. Team Prager Dreifuss 1 (consisting of Marcel Frey, Dani Pabst, Marie Schärz and Brigitte Flückiger) crossed the finish line after 4 hours 7 minutes and 28 seconds.

Scaling new heights
Aug 2010
At Prager Dreifuss we are constantly scaling new heights, not only in the field of law, but also in the mountains. On 24 July 2010 our M&A Team member Robin Indermaur reached Uhuru Peak on Mount Kilimanjaro, the word’s highest freestanding mountain (5,895m above sea level), thereby bringing to 10% the amount of our lawyers who have summited this peak. More will probably follow.
