Dr. Heller had obtained his high school diploma in 1986 as a boarding student of the monastery school of Einsiedeln. The motto of this school is:
Toto corde, tota anima, tota virtute
(wholehearted, from the depth of your soul, and with all your strength).
In 1994 Dr. Heller completed his law studies at the University of Zurich with distinction. He devoted his first years as a lawyer to teaching as a research assistant at a chair of law at ETH Zurich. Dr. Heller received his doctorate in 1999, again with distinction. This was followed by internships in a law practice and at the court. After being admitted to the bar of the Canton of Zurich (in 2000), Dr. Heller decided against the offer of a position in the group legal department of a major Swiss bank. He wanted to work as a traditional lawyer. After two educational years in one of the largest Swiss commercial law firms at the time, Dr. Heller became self-employed in 2003: the original “Law Firm Heller” later employed several lawyers at times (“Heller Rechtsanwälte AG”).
In 2009 Dr. Heller acquired the title “Certified Specialized Attorney SBA Employment Law” and in 2017 the title “Certified Specialized Attorney SBA Family Law”.
Dr. Heller consolidates and deepens his legal knowledge as an author of specialist publications or as a lecturer.
Dr. Heller has many years of experience as a member of the board of directors of a traditional company in Eastern Switzerland with around 230 employees.
Dr. Heller is registered in the Attorneys’ Register of the Canton of Zurich and is a member of the Zurich and Swiss Bar Associations.
As a founding member of the Lions Club Zürich-Airport (2012/2013: President), Dr. Heller headed lions think, the think tank of Lions International Switzerland, from 2009 to 2014.
In military terms, Dr. Heller held the rank of captain and was a company commander of the mountain infantry.
