The firm is shortlisted in the category for “Innovation in Client Delivery”, and is the only Norwegian law firm nominated for an award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Wiersholm is shortlisted for the Financial Times Innovative Lawyers Awards Europe 2023<\/a> based on the firm\u2019s methodology for pursuing \u201cFlawless Execution\u201d for clients. The concept is developed by M&A partner Harald Hellebust, who took the methodology of Plan, Brief, Execute, Debrief (PBED) used by the US Air Force and adjusted it to fit a law firm. Harald has found the PBED methodology to be an effective way of creating and developing best practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 We appreciate Financial Times\u2019 recognition of our structured way of working with our clients and projects. We are dedicated to assisting as efficiently and purposefully as possible on assignments and being the preferred adviser for our clients, Hellebust says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harald Hellebust has long been a leading figure in the M&A market in Norway for this pioneering approach to transaction project management and delivering value to clients. In fact, Wiersholm was also nominated for the FT Innovative Lawyer Awards 2019 in the category \u201cBusiness of law \u2013 New products and services\u201d for our digital project management system for transaction execution, then called Transaction Control. Hellebust was the lead partner in creating this product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marketing and Communications Director Christine Li\u00e6ker Lindberg is responsible for client development in Wiersholm, and has been working alongside Hellebust and other partners since 2006 to constantly improve Wiersholm\u2019s services:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Being forward-looking and innovative is one of our values at Wiersholm. We always emphasize understanding, simplifying and improving the everyday lives of our clients, and the PBED methodology has proven to be a good way of streamlining and ensuring the quality of our work, Lindberg says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2022, Wiersholm won an award at the Financial Times Innovative Lawyers Europe Awards<\/a> for the category \u201cInnovation in overcoming barriers to finance\u201d for the firm\u2019s work on Norway\u2019s first-of-a-kind full-scale carbon capture and storage chain (CCS) project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
