Professional qualifications

Michael Isak is admitted as an Attorney-at-Law in the State of New York, as a Solicitor of the Senior Courts of England & Wales, and as a Solicitor in Ireland.

Applicable professional conduct rules apply according to the jurisdiction and capacity in which services are provided.

Scope of services

Isak Legal operates from Switzerland. We accept engagements subject to the professional and regulatory requirements applicable to the services concerned.

Legal services are provided on the basis of Michael Isak's admissions in New York, England and Wales, and Ireland and, from Zurich, include advice on Swiss law. Representation before Swiss courts and authorities, and any other matter that Swiss law reserves to lawyers entered in a cantonal register, is undertaken with a registered Swiss lawyer. Where matters involve other jurisdictions, we work with qualified local counsel.

Isak Legal is not affiliated with a Swiss self-regulatory organisation under the Anti-Money Laundering Act. We do not undertake activities requiring such affiliation.

The scope and terms of each engagement are agreed separately.

Attorney advertising

This website may constitute attorney advertising under the rules of the State of New York. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.

General information; no legal advice

The content of this website is provided for general information only. It does not constitute legal advice or address the circumstances of any particular person or matter. Do not act or refrain from acting on the basis of website material without obtaining advice on your particular circumstances.

Articles and other publications reflect their stated context and date. Legal requirements, regulatory guidance and official interpretations may change. Check the current official sources before relying on a statement or date.

Enquiries and client relationships

Accessing this website, sending an enquiry or receiving an automated response does not, by itself, create a lawyer-client relationship. We confirm acceptance of new instructions after completing the necessary checks and agreeing the terms of engagement.

Please initially provide only an outline of your enquiry, the relevant jurisdictions and parties, and your contact details. Do not send confidential documents or detailed information about a matter before we have confirmed how to proceed.

Sending a message does not confirm that a lawyer has reviewed it or accepted responsibility for taking action or meeting a deadline. For an existing matter, use your agreed contact arrangements. Nothing in this notice limits duties that arise under applicable law or professional rules.

Automated telephone reception

Our AI receptionist takes messages and provides basic information about the practice. It does not provide legal advice, assess the merits of a matter, clear conflicts, accept instructions, agree fees or confirm appointments.

Leaving a message or receiving an acknowledgement from the receptionist does not confirm that a lawyer will act on your behalf or respond before a deadline. Do not rely on the service for urgent action.

Please provide only an outline of your enquiry and your preferred contact details. Avoid confidential or sensitive information on this service, including when calling about an existing matter. Automated transcription, summaries and translations may contain errors.

Our Privacy Notice explains how telephone calls and messages are processed.

Regulatory dates and other reference materials

The Key Dates timeline and other reference materials cover selected developments. They are not a complete statement of the law or a compliance calendar for any particular person or business.

The timeline does not determine which requirements apply to your circumstances. Using it does not engage us to monitor your obligations, calculate your deadlines or send reminders. Check the linked official source and obtain advice where the application or calculation of a deadline matters.

Liability

We prepare this website with care but do not guarantee that its content is complete, accurate or current, or that access will be uninterrupted.

To the extent permitted by law, we exclude liability for loss arising from use of, inability to access, or reliance on the general information on this website.

This does not exclude or limit liability for fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence or any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. It does not limit our legal or professional duties to clients or prospective clients. The terms of each engagement are agreed separately.
