Firm Overview:

Norrbom Vinding is Denmark’s largest boutique labour and employment law firm advising on all aspects of labour and employment law and acting exclusively for the management/employer side. The core group of Norrbom Vinding’s lawyers are among those who pioneered and developed labour and employment law as a separate discipline for private practice lawyers in Denmark in the 1980s, and the firm’s unique expertise thus builds on 30+ years’ experience within the area. Norrbom Vinding is also one of the largest labour and employment practices in Scandinavia in terms of caseload, high-profile cases and partners and associates engaged full-time in labour and employment law. Furthermore, Norrbom Vinding is the law firm in Denmark handling most litigation cases for employers in the area, including Supreme Court and Labour Court cases, and carrying out the greatest number of collective bargaining processes on behalf of clients. Offering a full service on all aspects of contentious and non-contentious labour and employment law to a client base that is a mixture of national and international companies and organisations, Norrbom Vinding’s legal advice is firmly rooted in an understanding of management and commercial realities and is tailored to safeguard each client’s interests in terms of image, internal environment, public and media relations and all other relations of importance to the client.
