About

The firm: The firm’s heritage dates back to a law firm founded in 1918 in Stockholm and as of 1 January 2019 the firm continues to conduct its business under the new name Cirio with around 140 co-workers. The firm continues to build its strategy formulated and successfully implemented over the last few years. Cirio builds on a heritage of providing first class legal advice, aiming to take legal advice to a new level and to be even more innovative for the benefit of our clients and talents.

We view technological advancement as positive for humanity. As a result, we are particularly focussed on sectors like energy and infrastructure, digitalization and technology, life science and healthcare, and real estate. We have nurtured our specialised expertise in these sectors over time combining our legal, commercial, and technical insights that assist our clients in achieving their goals. 

We believe that business should be conducted with brilliance and compassion. Therefore, we provide extensive expertise with unparalleled dedication by handpicking teams that are specifically assembled for each client and assignment. We collaborate seamlessly across our areas of expertise and sectors to develop rewarding business relationships.

Cirio is a full-service business law firm, meaning that we offer our clients a wide range of services enabling us to provide all types of legal expertise within business law. We have categorized our legal expertise into four areas that reflect our clients’ needs for legal services:

  • Transactional services
  • Business strategy and operations services
  • Special situations services
  • Collaborative innovation services

Our firm works hard to be the most sustainable law firm in Sweden, both from a social and environmental perspective. We have a detailed plan to reach equal gender representation in the partnership, and we work strategically to become the most attractive law firm to work at, not least by making sure that working conditions are sustainable.

Areas of practice: Cirio is a law firm with a complete offering for the clients we work with, which client base ranges from corporate clients and PE funds to international law firms. For this reason, we have a natural focus and strong team in the transactional practice areas, including private and public M&A and banking and finance (including insolvency and restructuring) and litigation.

Our restructuring and insolvency team distinguishes itself from competition in the Swedish market by being closely integrated with our banking and finance practice, and thus by being able to offer in-depth knowledge throughout the entire financing cycle.

In order to assist our clients in all aspects, we also offer strong practice in areas such as: collaborative innovation; competition; compliance; public procurement; insolvency and intellectual property.
