The firm has specialist competence in, inter alia, relevant contracts, construction law, PPP projects (public-private partnerships), environmental law, public procurement, financing, insurance, tax and different forms of dispute resolution. Thus, the firm is able to assist clients in all phases of a project, such as in strategic matters and permit issues, in conjunction with procurement, completion and financing, and also in the event of disputes.

In each matter, our clients have access to Mannheimer Swartling’s combined knowledge within the fields of infrastructure and construction.

Reviews of the firm
The lawyers in the infrastructure and construction group are acknowledged as leading practitioners within the field (PLC Which Lawyer, Expert Guide to the World´s Leading Lawyers, European Legal 500, European Legal Experts).

"The breadth of Mannheimer Swartling’s construction industry capabilities singles it out. The firm’s ability to offer expert services in other areas, including tax and environmental services, is also a major selling point to clients. Jan Kansmark’s ten-partner team shines as one of the few firms in Sweden handling international projects work. Furthermore the firm is legal adviser in the most complex projects in Sweden, including tunnels, power plants and other major infrastructure facilities." (Legal 500)
