Hoop + FidiLaw: Company formations, finally fully digital

Hoop: The Digital Solution for Company Formations and Corporate Changes in Swiss Law Firms

Hoop demonstrates how company formations and corporate changes can be handled fully digitally. The entire workflow is seamlessly integrated into the digital ecosystem of modern law firms – starting with mandate management in the ERP system, continuing through document creation, and extending all the way to digital signatures and filing with the Swiss Commercial Register.

From an Isolated Formation Mandate to a Digital End‑to‑End Process

In many law firms, company formation has traditionally been handled as an isolated process. A combination of different software tools, Word templates, emails, physical signatures, and postal submissions to the Commercial Register created sources of error and high coordination effort. Hoop replaces these fragmented workflows with a fully digital process.

All steps are captured centrally. Data, documents, signatures, and the submission to the Commercial Register are handled without media disruptions. For law firms, this represents a significant relief: formations are no longer treated as special cases, but as an integrated part of the firm’s digital day‑to‑day operations.

Hoop Within the FidiLaw Ecosystem

FidiLaw provides the digital foundation for law firms in Switzerland. Mandate management, digital case files, secure data exchange via DeepBox, digital signatures with DeepSign, time recording, and billing all operate within an integrated Abacus environment.
Hoop complements this infrastructure wherever precise and standardized processes are particularly important – especially for company formations and corporate changes recorded in the Commercial Register.

Key Benefits for Law Firms

Time Savings and Scalability

With Hoop, formations and corporate changes can be processed significantly faster. Processes that previously took several days can now be completed within a few hours. This is especially valuable for firms with high case volumes or recurring formation mandates.

Improved Client Experience

Clients can complete all steps independently of location and without paper‑based processes. The result is a modern, efficient, and user‑friendly service that meets the expectations placed on a digital law firm in Switzerland today.

Legal Certainty and Compliance

All data is stored in Switzerland and processed in a certified Swiss cloud. Digital signatures are legally valid. Standardized processes ensure a high level of security and traceability, which is particularly important for Commercial Register filings and legally sensitive procedures.

Cost Efficiency and a Suitable Pricing Model

FidiLaw scales per user, while Hoop scales per case. This combination supports cost‑conscious growth for law firms and enables more efficient resource planning.

Outlook: The Connected Law Firm Ecosystem of the Future

Developments clearly show that connected digital ecosystems will shape the future of the legal industry. FidiLaw provides the stable foundation for everyday legal work. Hoop delivers targeted added value wherever processes require clear standards and speed – such as in company formations and corporate changes.

Law firms that digitalize their workflows on this basis increase efficiency, transparency, and service quality. At the same time, they position themselves as modern partners for clients who expect fast, digital, and location‑independent services.
