With Elin on board, we further strengthen our dispute resolution team and our physical presence in our Stockholm office, where we recently welcomed three partners in M&A - Anders Lindström, Per Lagerkvist, and Fredrik Mörner. In 2023, several senior colleagues also joined us, including Säde Kanervisto, expert in privacy and data protection, Dan Örnfjäder, working in our Digital Business-team, and Love Fält, IP specialist," says Katrin Troedsson.
