Our advice is characterised by integrity and sound judgement in particularly sensitive situations.

Dispute resolution

Dispute resolution is a significant and natural part of our practice, and we have extensive experience in resolving disputes. We regularly act in proceedings before the Swedish Labour Court, the general courts and arbitral tribunals, as well as serving as counsel before the Court of Justice of the European Union and the European Court of Human Rights.
