Gernandt & Danielsson (G&D) is one of Sweden’s leading international arbitration firms, with a dispute practice dating back to the firm’s launch in 1992. The firm’s dispute team year in, year out handles many of the largest and most sophisticated mandates on the Swedish market. At the outset, the firm earned its reputation representing one of the country’s largest banks in disputes that arose from Sweden’s financial crisis in the 1990s. Over the years, it has established
close relationships with many leading firms in the Nordic region, as well as links with those in the UK, the USA, Europe and Asia. G&D is often called on by clients to resolve disputes with a Swedish con - nection, although in recent years the firm’s truly inter - national portfolio has grown considerably too. Today, G&D is one of the larger law firms in Sweden and is renowned for its broad experience representing both Swedish and foreign clients.
