What We Offer

Lawyers

The Finnish Tax Administration has published numerous support measures over the past few days to ease the exceptional circumstances created by the coronavirus pandemic. The goal of the Tax Administration and the Ministry of Finance is to support companies through measures to ease cashflow problems and reporting. The measures published so far seem quite moderate from the perspective of improving the finances and liquidity of companies.

Internal Business Services

Do you enjoy solving challenges as part of a team? We offer career opportunities to experts in a wide variety of fields. We employ nearly 70 people who support other experts in the firm as well as our firm’s clients.

Trainees

By participating in our trainee programmes, you will get to experience what it’s like working in one of Finland's largest law firms. Many of our lawyers have started their careers as trainees.

We have low team boundaries, which makes us a genuine full-service firm. We have been successful in highly demanding projects that require a wide range of expertise. Our warm work community, meaningful work and the clients I get to work with are what drive me forward.
