Former PwC Legal Attorney at Law Simon Baier has launched the eponymous SHB Law Office Simon Harald Baier.
SHB will focus on "business law, international trade, contracts, and proceedings" and also specializes "in both commercial aviation and national/European aviation regulation and supervision" as well as having "expertise in EU-Korea trade and legal advice in the Austria-Korea business nexus."
Eunyoung Yang, the former Financial Planning and Analysis Manager of Kompany, a Moody's Analytics Company, joined the new firm as a Business Advisor.
Before setting up his new firm, Baier spent two years with PwC Legal Austria as an Attorney at Law. Earlier, he spent another two as Head of the National Authority for Air Traffic Controller Licensing and a Regulation & Compliance Manager with Austro Control. Before that, he spent six years with Austrian Airlines AG between 2013 and 2019, first as a Senior Legal Counsel and then as Director of Legal Services. He started his career with Gugerbauer & Partner in 2005 and left the firm in 2012, while also spending one year as Head of the European Desk for AJU Kim Chang & Lee in Seoul, between 2008 and 2009.
“Together with my team and based on my many years of experience both in management positions at international companies and as a business lawyer, I look forward to accompanying our clients on their path to success with efficient and tailored advice at the highest level,” Baier commented.
