Senior Associate, Member of the Finnish Bar, Solicitor (England and Wales)
About me
Since I joined Castrén & Snellman in 2009, I have focused my practice on restructuring and insolvency as well corporate advisory services. I am currently based in London, and in addition to being a member of the Finnish Bar, I am also a qualified solicitor in England and Wales after completing the Qualified Lawyers Transfer Scheme assessments.
My expertise covers restructuring & insolvency, compliance & investigations as well as corporate governance matters.
I have served as part of the administration of numerous complex corporate restructuring and bankruptcy proceedings. I also represent creditors in insolvency proceedings and regularly advise clients with regard to impending insolvency and conduct investigations in relation to asset tracing.
I advise clients in compliance, risk management and corporate responsibility. I assist clients in their internal and external investigations by assessing and investigating suspected irregularities or wrongdoings relating to both their business partners and their internal operations. I also regularly advice in relation to sanctions and trade compliance matters.
In addition, I have wide-ranging experience within the field of corporate law. I advise listed and private companies in matters related to, for example, corporate structuring, corporate governance and directors’ liability. I also assist clients in contract law matters. In dispute resolution, I focus my practice on insolvency related recovery proceedings and corporate disputes.
I frequently publish articles within my fields of expertise in international professional publications and I have acted as lecturer in international seminars.
