In a globalized economy, reliable legal structures are essential – especially when companies expand across borders. For German companies aiming to enter the Scandinavian market, the Swedish law firm Lindahl proves to be a key player. Led by experienced partners like Magnus Löfving, Lindahl has been successfully assisting clients from the DACH region with market entry, acquisitions, and strategic partnerships for years.
Local Presence with International Ambitions
Lindahl is one of Sweden’s leading business law firms, with six locations in strategically important cities such as Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö, and Uppsala. This local presence provides an in-depth understanding of regional conditions – an invaluable advantage when providing legal support for complex business processes.
This international bridge is especially visible in the work of Magnus Löfving, who assists German companies with legally demanding projects in Scandinavia. Whether it’s setting up a subsidiary, drafting supply contracts, or acquiring a local company, Löfving and his team offer tailored solutions that ensure both economic and legal security.
Over 30 Legal Fields, One Goal: Client Success
Lindahl covers an impressive range of legal fields – with over 30 specialties represented in the firm, including corporate law, labor law, IP/IT, environmental law, and regulatory matters. This versatility allows Lindahl to provide comprehensive support for businesses seeking to establish themselves in the Scandinavian market.
An example of the importance of country-specific legal advice: While German labor law under §14 TzBfG imposes strict regulations on fixed-term contracts, Swedish labor law offers far more flexibility. Such differences are not merely legal details – they directly impact a company’s personnel strategy. Lindahl identifies such specifics early on and helps strategically leverage them.
Legal Tech as a Strategic Advantage
Lindahl not only relies on legal expertise but also on technological innovation. Under the leadership of CIO Axel Hedberg, the firm actively invests in Legal Tech. The digital solutions employed range from automated contract generators to AI-based analysis tools for compliance and risk management.
The effects are measurable:
-
Contract solutions are created up to 40% faster.
-
Processing times and communication processes are significantly more efficient.
-
Clients benefit from cost transparency and savings.
A practical example: In the investment in 3Button Group AB by German investors, Lindahl provided legal support. The intelligent integration of legal expertise and digital workflows ensured the deal was not only legally sound but also efficiently executed. For German companies seeking to enter the dynamic tech market in Scandinavia, Lindahl offers a real competitive advantage.
Successful Projects with a Focus on Germany
Lindahl regularly advises on transnational mandates with a focus on Germany. Two prominent examples demonstrate the firm’s competence in the German-Scandinavian economic context:
-
Equistone Partners received comprehensive legal support from Lindahl in the acquisition of Road Rental Scandinavia AB. This project required in-depth knowledge of infrastructure services and transactional law – both strengths of the firm.
-
Swedencare, a publicly listed company from Sweden, received legal assistance when acquiring Summit Veterinary Pharmaceuticals in the UK. While this case is not directly related to Germany, it showcases Lindahl’s ability to support internationally operating companies.
Sustainability as a Consulting Approach
A unique feature of Lindahl is its consistent focus on sustainability, ESG criteria, and social responsibility. These issues are no longer just peripheral aspects but central components of corporate governance – even from a legal perspective.
Lindahl advises clients on implementing European ESG requirements such as the CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive). This is especially beneficial for German SMEs: companies that invest early in sustainable structures not only secure competitive advantages but also minimize regulatory risks.
The firm offers:
-
Support in preparing legally compliant sustainability reports.
-
Advice on supply chain laws and ESG due diligence.
-
Development of sustainability strategies with legal security.
Start-ups and growth-oriented SMEs benefit from Lindahl’s practical solutions for efficiently meeting regulatory requirements – without sacrificing their innovation potential.

Magnus Löfving, partner at Lindahl, embodies the firm’s philosophy: he combines legal precision with strategic thinking and international experience. With a clear focus on corporate law, M&A, and cross-border transactions, he has earned an excellent reputation – particularly among German-speaking clients.
Löfving speaks fluent English and has a deep understanding of the legal and cultural differences between Germany and Sweden. This intercultural competence makes him the ideal point of contact for companies seeking to establish themselves sustainably and legally in Scandinavia.
