About me
I specialise in corporate law. I work with all kinds of corporate law assignments, planning and carrying out structured transactions, i.e. mergers and demergers, issues related to shares and equity financing, shareholder agreements, general meetings, corporate advisory and corporate disputes. In addition to limited liability companies, I also advise cooperatives as well as banks, insurance companies and other corporate forms operating under specific legislation.
In addition to my career as attorney, I have participated in the drafting of the current Finnish Companies Act as the secretary of the working group charged with drafting the Companies Act and as an expert for the Ministry of Justice. I also contribute to authoring and updating one of the leading legal commentaries regarding the Companies Act. I am also the chair of the Finnish Corporate Law Association.
I earned my law degree from the University of Turku. In addition, I have a Master of Social Sciences degree from the same university with economics as my major subject.
