In spring 1996, we published the first edition of our legal overview Shit happens. In the 30 years since then, we have constantly dealt with the prosecution of cannabis in Switzerland. We have collected summary penalty orders, provided legal information to those affected and graphically presented the number of convictions.
In 2025, there were still almost 20,000 cannabis-related offenses reported. Although fewer than before (the peak was over 70,000 per year), many people are still affected by prosecution of hemp every year. Especially now in spring, hemp seed orders are an issue, and there are constant inquiries about THC and road traffic.
You are welcome to order a copy of the current edition of our Shit happens or download it here as a PDF. For personal information, we can be reached by telephone on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays in the afternoon: 079 581 90 44. We are also happy to provide advice in our office.
