Ritter & Beck Rechtsanwälte is a law firm based in Vaduz, Liechtenstein.

History

The firm was founded in 1914 by Liechtensteiner politician Wilhelm Beck. In 1926, fellow lawyer Alois Ritter joined his office and the two worked together, in which the firm derives its name.

Beck was a pioneer of Liechtenstein financial services and fiduciary services. Together with Emil Beck (no relation), they wrote the Liechtenstein Personal and Company law, which came into force in 1926. By 1930, almost half of Liechtenstein's domiciliary companies were founded by Ritter & Beck.
