The market-leading regulatory, compliance and investigations practice at Wiersholm maintains a strong position in the market within compliance, while its caseload increasingly includes security regulations and sanctions work. Seasoned litigator Jan Fougner oversees the team alongside Georg Abusdal Engebretsen, who assists international enterprises and public institutions with compliance work and private investigations. Another core pillar of the practice is ESG and environmental matters and Helene Bogen is a key name on this side. Other noteworthy individuals are Erelend A. Methi, who specialises in human rights law, and Hildegunn Alsvik, who handles contentious compliance and corporate governance matters.
