Swiss Federal Law refers to the legal framework established by the Swiss Federal Constitution and the laws enacted by the Federal Assembly of Switzerland. It governs various aspects of life in the country, including civil rights, criminal law, and economic regulations. The law is designed to ensure consistency and fairness across the 26 cantons of Switzerland. The Swiss legal system is characterized by a combination of federal and cantonal laws. While the federal government sets overarching laws, each canton has the authority to create its own regulations in certain areas. This dual system allows for local adaptation while maintaining national standards under Swiss Federal Law.
