International & Cross-Border Capabilities

DLA Piper is a full-service global law firm with a well-reputed pan-Nordic platform which is well positioned to act for clients across the region. The Swedish practice has strong appeal for multinational investors with business interests across the Nordics and for those who are looking for a platform to handle legal issues in the region as one unit. It is particularly popular with global clients from the finance, life sciences, technology and gaming spheres, due to its strong sector experience. Its clientele also includes mid-sized local corporates investing abroad.

The Swedish office regularly cooperates with the law firm’s offices in Finland, Norway and Denmark, in either a lead or local counsel role. The Stockholm-based team is also in close contact with its colleagues from other global jurisdictions, including the UK, Europe and across the globe. Key areas of cross-border work undertaken from Sweden include acquisitions, divestments, financing, regulatory issues and data protection matters, with the team recently leading cross-border M&A for Swedish companies acquiring businesses in Europe.
