Quick answers
How many lawyer jobs in Switzerland are open right now?
284 live openings, refreshed with the nightly scrape; the newest was posted Sep 16. A page like this only exists while it clears a minimum of live listings, so the count is real inventory, never padding. Every preloaded search: browse the board.
Can I get a lawyer job from an adjacent career?
Measurably, yes. The closest measured pivots in: paralegal (29% skill readiness). Each route page lists exactly which skills carry over and which are missing. Moving out instead: where lawyers move next.
Do I need German for lawyer roles in Switzerland?
48 of the 284 lawyer roles here state a language requirement in the posting, and German is the one asked for most (36 postings; English in 27, French in 12). The other 236 say nothing explicit, which in Switzerland usually means the local language of the canton is assumed. A posting written in English is not counted as requiring English; only the stated requirement is. The language pages: german-speaking jobs in switzerland, english-speaking jobs in switzerland, french-speaking jobs in switzerland.
Are part-time lawyer roles common in Switzerland?
Swiss postings state the workload in the title as a percentage of a full week, and 93 of the 284 lawyer roles here do. 79 of those open the door below 100 percent, 14 are full time only. The commonest stated ranges: 80 to 100% (34), 80% (14), 100% (14), 60% (7). A range like 80 to 100 percent means the employer will take four days a week; it is a real option to negotiate, not a formality.
Where in Switzerland are the lawyer roles?
By the location named in the posting: Bern (51), Zürich (47), Geneva (18), Aarau (12), Basel (12), Lausanne (12). 61 of the 284 are fully remote. Cantons differ in language and in permit practice, so the city is worth checking before the salary.
