Lawyer Rankings
Norway > Regulatory, compliance and investigations
BAHR‘s full-service corporate compliance, investigations, and regulatory practice stands out for its strength in financial services and asset management matters, as well as handling anti-corruption and international trade compliance work. ‘Accomplished and preeminent practitioner’ Morten Smørdal has extensive experience in transactions and project development-related compliance issues, and the ‘commercial thinking’ team has seen a recent increase in instructions relating to the Norwegian Transparency Act. On this front, Jon Christian Thaulow is a key contact, while Lars G. Norheim takes point on contractual IP and compliance-related matters. For asset management mandates, Peter Hammerich and Lene E. Nygård are recommended.
Norway > Intellectual property
BAHR‘s intellectual property practice covers all areas of contentious and non-contentious matters and has positioned itself as a key adviser to multinational pharma companies, and clients in the energy, media, and telecoms sectors. Experienced litigator Eirik Basmo Ellingsen is singled out as ‘exceptional in navigating complex legal frameworks’ and oversees the team. Litigator Gunnar Sørlie has vast experience handling complex patent disputes; Anja Stensrud Elverum is another key name in this space. IP transactions are another key area of work for the practice, in which Jacob A. Møller and Lars G. Norheim are recommended.
