Within the enterprise sector, we assist our clients – both private and public – in a wide range of medium and large arbitration and court cases primarily concerning claims related to major construction projects.

In this context, we have gained extensive experience in conducting both arbitration and court cases at various instances, including the Danish Institute of Arbitration, the Arbitration Board for Building and Construction, and court cases at all judicial levels in Denmark. 

Our team handles – and has historically handled – the largest construction disputes in Denmark, and our team is therefore both highly specialised and experienced.
