About
Mag. Nicolas Stieger, LL.M.
Founder and managing partner.
Nicolas founded Stieger Rechtsanwalt to offer clients a clearer alternative to the large-firm model: senior attention on every matter, plain answers instead of padded memos, and a working relationship that lasts beyond a single transaction.
He advises Austrian and international clients on corporate structuring, real estate transactions, employment matters, and complex disputes — with a particular focus on cross-border work between Austria, Liechtenstein, and Switzerland.

How We Work
Three commitments that shape every engagement.
SENIOR ATTENTION
You speak directly with the lawyer handling your matter. No layered teams, no relayed answers. The first call and the closing meeting are with the same person.
PLAIN LANGUAGE
Advice you can act on without a translator. We write the way we’d want a lawyer to write to us — short, specific, and honest about uncertainty.
DISCRETION
Confidentiality is not a clause. It’s how the firm operates day-to-day, from how we file documents to how we discuss matters in passing.
Where We Practice
Three offices, one practice.
The firm maintains a primary office in Bregenz, with additional locations in Vienna and Vaduz. The footprint reflects how clients in this region actually work: Austrian corporate matters touch Liechtenstein structures; Vorarlberg transactions reach into Switzerland; Vienna handles federal-level disputes and administrative work.
Most matters move between two or three of these jurisdictions, and the practice is built to handle that without involving outside counsel for routine cross-border questions.
