Litigation is a fully integrated part of our firm’s legal practice and is handled by lawyers who are specialists in the relevant field of work, not by a “general litigation department”. We are one of Norway’s firms with the largest number of lawyers admitted to the Norwegian Supreme Court, and therefore have the capacity to litigate cases at all levels of the judicial system.
Our dispute resolution team is unique in comparison to other law firms in Norway because we can tailor each team to meet the needs of our client. We are known as one of the leading procedural firms in Norway, inter alia due to the number of our key cases that have set legal precedence.
A large proportion of our lawyers act as litigators on a regular basis. We are frequently appointed in arbitration cases, as counsel or arbitrator. We also have experience with high profile financial crime cases, such as tax evasion, corruption and insider trading cases.
Recently we have provided legal assistance in a number of professional liability cases against or for other law firms,
