I look forward to an enriching exchange of experience and to working with extremely knowledgeable lawyers, says Tomas Fjordevik.
Tomas’ legal background also includes work as a lawyer and associate at Mannheimer Swartling Advokatbyrå, where he was a member of the firm’s environmental law department. At that firm he advised on varying environmental law issues, served as counsel in permit assessments and participated as an adviser on environmental law issues in transactions and due diligence work.
