‘High partner involvement and a focus on tax controversy.’
‘Very solution-oriented, producing high-quality work.’
‘We think that the team is the most modern among the Danish law firms: they are diverse, use legal technology more than others, and give very solid tax advice, particularly within tax structuring where they have been able to negotiate some outstanding results with the Danish tax authorities.’
‘Thomas Frøbert is the one we have worked the most with. He comes across as extremely knowledgeable and is the perfect combination of a tax litigator and tax advisor. This combination means that he can predict better than others which transactions will be accepted and which could be challenged.'
‘Thomas Frøbert is an excellent and pragmatic tax lawyer. His statements are precise, easy to understand and not unnecessarily long. I as a client get answers quickly and always within the set deadlines. Frøbert is entrepreneurial and holistic in his thinking and sees the world not only through tax glasses.’
‘The team is not the biggest in the business but makes up for that with experience, persistence and commercial mindset on even the most challenging tax technical matters.’
‘Birka Wendy Mouritzen is so competent, value-adding and quickly understands what we as a client need. She quickly distinguishes the must-haves from nice-to-haves, which is very important to us as a client.’
'The team is very responsive and has a good understanding of what we need. They are strong technically.'
