I have worked at Castrén & Snellman since 2013, which is nearly my entire career as a lawyer.
As an attorney, I primarily work with matters concerning insolvency and risk management. I have broad experience of corporate insolvency proceedings as a representative of both bankruptcy and restructuring administrations and that of creditors, as well as of advising companies in financial distress.
I am also specialised in insolvency-related risk management through various contractual or security arrangements, among other things. I have advised our clients in managing and mitigating insolvency-related risks in everything from small ventures to major projects. I also routinely advise clients on various serious disturbances in financing and other arrangements, starting from preparing for such disturbances to mitigating their effects and, e.g. enforcement proceedings.
My experience also covers handling insolvency-related and other disputes both in court and in arbitration proceedings. My experience in disputes covers, for example, various monetary claims, matters concerning clawback or precautionary measures, disputes concerning formal insolvency proceedings as well as various contractual disputes.
I also have a lengthy experience in corporate law, in which I have advised our clients in matters ranging from routine limited liability company questions to broad cross-border corporate transactions.
I strive to provide result-oriented and practical advice with our clients’ best interest at the forefront. I want to be a trusted advisor to our clients in both preventing as well as solving challenges.
I regularly lecture on insolvency law both inside our office as well as outside of it.
