Svensson Nøkleby Establishes an Office in Kongsberg

Svensson Nøkleby is taking its next step in growth by establishing an office in Kongsberg. From 1 January 2027, Buskerud’s largest legal practice and one of Norway’s largest law firms outside Oslo will have a local presence in the region. The new office will open in Quben, centrally located in the city, becoming part of an attractive and growing business community.

Investing in a Growing Region

The Kongsberg region is one of Norway’s leading technology and industrial hubs, characterized by strong business activity, innovation, and growth. Over the years, the region has developed into a key center for value creation and is a natural area of focus for Svensson Nøkleby.
 

"We believe the time is right to establish a full-service law firm with the breadth and capacity that Svensson Nøkleby can offer. The region’s business community has a growing demand for legal expertise across a wide range of practice areas, and we want to be close to both existing and new clients," says Odd Hylland, Managing Partner at Svensson Nøkleby.
 

Local Presence, Broad Expertise

From the outset, the office will be staffed by resident lawyers, while clients will also have access to the full expertise of Svensson Nøkleby’s team of more than 40 lawyers and specialists.
 

The firm does not rule out further expansion in the future.
 

"We are establishing ourselves in Kongsberg with a long-term perspective and look forward to attracting additional talented professionals locally over time. Lawyers who wish to be part of developing both the investment and the Kongsberg office are warmly invited to get in touch with us," says Kine Yngsdal Nystrøm, Chair of the Board of Svensson Nøkleby.
 

An Active Contributor to the Business Community

Svensson Nøkleby aims to play an active role in the business community and collaborative networks that have made Kongsberg one of Norway’s most dynamic growth regions.
 

"Kongsberg is renowned for its unique culture of collaboration between industry, educational institutions, and public-sector stakeholders. These are values that align closely with the way we work. We look forward to becoming an active participant in the region’s continued development," says Nystrøm.
