Financing solutions provided by pragmatic and dedicated lawyers

We assist both Norwegian and international financial institutions with assessment of loan and debt structures, review of term sheets, drafting of loan documentation and the establishment of collateral, including advice to businesses on the negotiation and review of loan agreements. We work across such areas of expertise as company law, financial services regulation, as well as restructuring and insolvency, thus enhancing our understanding of the legal, commercial and strategic aspects of financing.

A number of our lawyers have previously been employed by banks and financial institutions, and are authors of key legal texts in this field.
