History

Strong roots produce beautiful leaves. We are a Finnish law firm established over 100 years ago with strong roots in Finland’s history. We have handled some of the most challenging assignments for the most interesting clients, upholding the rule of law since the early days of Finnish independence and contributing to the development of the Finnish legal landscape. As businesses have become increasingly globalised, the demand for profound tailored legal advice has followed – we have grown from a two-partner firm to a company that currently employs over 120 lawyers.

Our approach to providing our clients with premium quality legal services is the result of several decades of innovation. While lawyers’ work will always be firmly rooted in tradition and the core of our work will never change, we quickly adapt to change in the world of business. Our commitment to extending our global reach has always been there, and today we work together with our global networks and our offices in London and New York to provide an international perspective on all assignments.
