Advokatfirma Kogstad Lunde & Co

ETHICS AND CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

• Kogstad Lunde & Co does not discriminate based on rase, gender, religion or sexual orientation and we are proud to have the LGBTQ community represented amongst our partners.
• 14 % of our partners are women. We have introduced benefits that should encourage more female attorneys to join the partnership. Our law firm has always had a focus on work-life-balance.
• We empower our employees to serve our clients in the best way possible at the work location and environment that best suite them. This focus of flexibility is valued by both our employees and our clients which is evidenced by our low turnover rate. This is also highlighted by the fact that both female and male employees choose to stay on with us while raising a family.
• In order to increase the competence of our customers, we regularly act as teaching supervisors for the customers’ employees. We also offer secondments.
• We offer trainee positions to law students and urge law students with minority background to apply.
• We offer writing desk, guidance and lunch to law students who write their thesis on a subject within insurance law or tort law.
