Advising German enterprises on activities in Scandinavia—and vice versa

The Nordic countries, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden are modern industrialized economies with highly developed infrastructure and innovative companies.

With long-standing expertise, we advise German companies on their business activities in Scandinavia and vice versa. We have a particular focus on supporting cross-border M&A transactions and other economically significant projects. We not only understand the challenges of commercial law in the Nordic region; we are also familiar with local cultural practices and can therefore provide you with success-orientated support for your project.

We work closely with renowned Nordic law firms; for example, in Norway, with the law firm Ræder Bing, which also maintains a German Desk.

In Germany, our lawyers, tax advisors, auditors and business consultants offer our Nordic clients the entire range of consulting services necessary for the establishment and acquisition of businesses from a single source. Our Swedish-speaking partner Dr. Ralf Ek will support you with his more than 25 years’ experience in advising on German-Nordic legal issues.

Foreign trade and international cooperation have great economic significance, especially in relation to Germany, their most important trading partner. Knowing the legal framework for trade and investments is crucial for companies in order to avoid various "pitfalls".
