Chambers Global 2011 and Chambers Europe 2011
Both Chambers Europe 2011 and Chambers Global 2011 were recently published. All of our partners were listed among the leading dispute resolution practicioners in Finland. Our firm was described by Chambers as follows:
Chambers Global 2011
The founder of this dispute resolution boutique, Patrik Lindfors is an undisputed market favourite and is unanimously considered deserving of his stellar reputation. Clients make particular note of his "commercially savvy, strategic approach and thoroughness." Despite his compact team, many clients prefer to instruct him over many larger operations in the market. His frequent involvement in international arbitration cases, his enviable experience and multilingual capacity make him an excellent choice for successfully handling high-profile disputes. Antti Summa is a big contributor to the success of this team, especially when the disputes require his expertise in corporate law. He is particularly active in international work and has recently served as counsel in several arbitration cases before the ICC and the Swedish Chamber of Commerce. Petra Kiurunen recently joined the firm. She wins praise as a high-quality arbitrator on many large-scale international cases. Clients speak admiringly of her approach: “She is extremely efficient, client-oriented and really knows our business.”

This specialised litigation boutique is compact, yet punches above its weight in terms of contentious matters. Firm founder Patrik Lindfors is praised by sources for his experience and strong clientele. He is “definitely a leading player in dispute resolution – he has a strong profile in the market and acts on significant cases,” say interviewees. Impressed clients recommend Lindfors’“extremely strategic way of thinking,” his business-minded approach and his excellent analytical skills. The firm’s second partner, Antti Summa, is especially experienced in the field of IT disputes. Many of the group's instructions include cross-border elements, and the lawyers frequently act on complex international arbitration proceedings. Petra Kiurunen recently joined the firm, and is commended for her expertise in international arbitration in particular. Interviewees say: “She gives her whole attention to clients; she is always responsive and extremely knowledgeable.”
