Magnusson launches coverage in Norway by setting up a branch office in Oslo in association with a leading Norwegian law firm Kluge.

Magnusson provides integrated seamless services throughout the Baltic Sea Region. The launch of Magnusson’s presence in Norway follows a recent dynamic growth of the firm in the region. After the launch of Magnusson Helsinki and Malmö in March 2011 and January 2012, respectively, Magnusson expanded to the Baltic States in April 2012.

“Norway is a natural part of our Baltic Sea Region strategy and our clients want us to be able to provide high quality seamless services also on the Norwegian market” states Senior Partner Per Magnusson. “We have been working with Kluge for many years and know that we are a good fit, sharing the same values and client focus”.

“We are delighted and excited about our cooperation with Magnusson” says Camilla Fiskevoll, Partner at Kluge. “The seamless Baltic Sea Region offering really provides added value to the clients and gives us a competitive edge”.
