International & Cross-Border Capabilities - Denmark
What the Team is Known For
Gorrissen Federspiel is one of the leading full-service law firms in Denmark and has a strong reputation for international work. It has a strong focus on advising Danish-headquartered clients on outbound work, taking advantage of relationships with top-end law firms in other jurisdictions. The law firm is often engaged in either a local or a co-counsel role on cross-border matters and demonstrates particular skill in coordinating Danish law-governed cases with international aspects. It houses UK-qualified individuals in Copenhagen who can support the team on English law-governed cases in cooperation with international law firms.
While Gorrissen Federspiel excels across a wide range of industries and practice areas, the law firm stands out in cross-border shipping transactions, where it often acts in a lead counsel role when advising domestic and international shipowners as well as private equity funds. The law firm is especially active in the Nordic countries, as well as on cases involving Germany, the UK and the USA. Its client base also includes blue-chip Danish-listed companies and regional players.
