Praised by clients for fielding the ‘strongest and most competent practices for compliance and investigations’, Wikborg Rein draws from its international network to offer a multidisciplinary practice equipped to handle compliance and regulatory work. Department co-head Elisabeth Roscher is well-regarded for advising on complex compliance cases, and fellow department head Geir Sviggum is skilled at compliance mandates with international elements. Another core area for the team is trade compliance and sanctions work, where Tine Elisabeth Vigmostad leads on international investigations. At associate level, Hanne Rustad Gundersrud is a key contact for cross-border investigations and complex international disputes. Håkon Stalheim Meldahl joined from Advokatfirmaet Thommessen AS in June 2024, strengthening the team's sanctions and export control offering.
