The assessments made by Legal 500 are largely based on client feedback. Here are some of the many client statements quoted in the 2023 ranking:

What sets Wiersholm apart from many of its competitors is the breadth of the team, and the quality – from junior associates to partners.

– M&A client

They’re not just the best when it comes to legal questions, but also have the knowledge about political processes that can affect us as a business.

– Real estate client

The Wiersholm TMT team is by far the most practical and commercially minded team. They understand what you need and the format you need it in for further internal use, so they make your job as General Counsel easier. They also come up with solutions, alternatives and compromises.

– TMT client

Wiersholm is very team-oriented, and I think what makes them unique compared to other law firms is how they include us, the client, as a genuine part of their team

– Complinace and investigations client
