About

Firm overview: Lindahl is one of Sweden’s leading and largest business law firms, with around 300 committed employees. The firm has six offices covering all major business hubs and regional markets in Sweden. The history of Lindahl stretches back more than a hundred years, to the founding of Alf Lindahl’s law firm in Stockholm in 1918. During the late 1980s, a number of firms nationwide merged into one new firm, aptly named Lindahl after the oldest partner at that time, a son of Alf Lindahl. Ever since, the firm has experienced exceptional growth both organically and through lateral hires, not least recently in Stockholm with more than 10 prominent lateral partner hires in said office during the last three years. Internationally, Lindahl is independent and relies on good relations with law firms around the globe in cross-border matters.
