Contact details

I specialise in dispute resolution and advise our clients in international and domestic court and arbitration proceedings.

Litigation and arbitration are my primary areas of interest but the whole span of disputes fascinates me. Access to justice, dispute prevention and a fair trial are all topics close to my heart.

I started my career at Castrén & Snellman as a trainee. Before that I earned valuable work experience as an intern in district court and at the Finnish Patent and Registration Office.

I hold a Master of Laws degree from the University of Helsinki. My master’s thesis dealt with challenge of arbitrator bias.

International reinsurance companies – Ad hoc arbitration proceedings
We successfully represented a panel of reinsurance companies in an international ad hoc arbitration. The dispute arose out of a reinsurance treaty under the terms of which the reinsurers had reinsured a portfolio of risks underwritten by the cedent. The parties disagreed as to whether the reinsurance provided coverage for a certain loss that had occurred because of the market turmoil caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. The case involved highly complex legal and contractual questions requiring special expertise on reinsurance law and practice. The arbitral tribunal rejected the counterparty’s claims for reinsurance compensation against our clients in full. The amount in dispute was approximately EUR 34 million.
