The team at Foyen Advokatfirma regularly works on complex, major public works, including reconstruction work of the Slussen water lock in Stockholm and the Uppsala tramway. Gothenberg-based Oscar Wackling brings particular experience advising on the early stages of the construction process, and Malmö-based Per Vestman also has significant experience in complex construction projects, while Stockholm’s Marcus Eidem handles various disputes; the three co-head the practice. John Hane has contentious and non-contentious capabilities. Maria Falhcrantz's January 2025 arrival strengthened the team.
