Lawyer Rankings

Norway > Real estate

Advokatfirmaet Haavind AS’ ‘highly competent‘ offering runs the gamut of real estate issues, including compulsory acquisitions, zoning and infrastructure matters, and transactional work. Lease contracts and large-scale property developments are other core pillars of work for the group, which advises both domestic and international clients in the residential and commercial real estate sector. Terese Negaard Sørli leads the real estate department, supported by Herman Roksund, who heads up the firm’s transaction group. Erling Timm attracts praise for his ‘commercial flair’ and project development expertise, while Magnus Meisingset-Haug is the key name for transactional mandates. Henrik Taubøll joined the team from Wiersholm in 2022 and is recommended for proptech issues, while Sofie Komissar joined in March 2023 from BAHR, strengthening the group’s contentious real estate offering.
