Healthcare

Our lawyers have unparalleled experience in legal work in the healthcare sector. They have been involved in most of the large healthcare transactions in the Nordic region over the last 15 years, giving them exceptional knowledge of the sector and its major players.

Nowadays, much of the healthcare sector is privately financed. Political pressure does impact the sector, though, and this further emphasizes the need for highly experienced legal support with a wide array of capabilities, including transactional, regulatory, tax and structuring, IPR and competition law.

Our success is based not just on our transactional prowess, but also on our deep understanding of the sector’s systemic risks, political and reputational risks as much as legal. We also offer our clients strong regulatory and IPR expertise, which are crucial when servicing the healthcare sector.
