FORCYD Expands Operations in Switzerland with New Zurich Office and Leadership Appointment

FORCYD's Strategic Move into Switzerland

FORCYD, a leading European consulting firm specializing in eDiscovery, investigations, and computer forensics, has announced its exciting expansion into Switzerland. This strategic move includes the opening of a new office in Zurich, further solidifying FORCYD's presence in Europe and enhancing their ability to service clients in the DACH region.

With a robust history of growth, FORCYD has successfully established offices across major European cities including Amsterdam, Brussels, London, Frankfurt, Paris, and Madrid. Their commitment to quality and excellence has earned them a reputation for handling complex cases where stakes are high. As they set foot in Switzerland, FORCYD aims to localize its operations to offer improved services tailored to the unique needs of clients in the country.

The appointment of Bob Dillen as the Partner and head of the Swiss office marks a significant milestone for FORCYD. Dillen brings over two decades of international experience in forensic technology, eDiscovery, and investigations. His expertise spans various industries, where he has guided organizations through arbitrations, litigation, regulatory issues, and major global investigations.

Bas Sluijsmans, Partner and Co-Founder of FORCYD, expressed his enthusiasm about Dillen's addition to the team. "We are excited to welcome Bob to FORCYD and launch our new office in Zurich. He holds an esteemed reputation in the industry and has successfully assisted organizations for many years with investigations, litigations, and regulatory challenges. More importantly, we share the same high standards for quality, independence, and client service,” stated Sluijsmans. “Bob will play a key role in our continued growth, and we look forward to developing our Swiss operations and global investigative offerings together."

In his own words, Bob Dillen remarked, "I have dedicated my career to assisting organizations with complex investigations, disputes, and regulatory concerns. Through my experiences, I have recognized the immense value that specialized knowledge coupled with a practical approach brings to the table. FORCYD shares this philosophy, and I am thrilled to join the firm and lead our Swiss practice."

The timing of this expansion is particularly significant as Switzerland hosts numerous international organizations operating within heavily regulated and data-intensive sectors. The Zurich office is set to respond to the increasing need for expertise in managing digital information during legal disputes, investigations, and regulatory processes. As the demand for specialized knowledge grows, FORCYD is poised to be a trusted advisor for clients and their legal representatives, addressing complex legal and regulatory challenges efficiently.
