Gärde Wesslau, a 65 lawyer firm operating out of six offices in Sweden, is poised for growth in its M&A department.
In November 2010 Anneli Lönnborg joined the department as an associate. In January 2011 the firm then hired partner Henrik Karlström from a rival law firm, ostensibly to replace partner Jürgen Conzen who left in December 2010, and in June 2011 the firm recruited a senior associate in Robert Moldén from the Swedish Competition Authority.
The firm occupies the mid-market in Sweden. In June 2010 its leading lawyer Staffan Olsson led a team to close a deal for Investment Spiltan. Despite the difficult economic environment Investment Spiltar acquired internet gaming company Paradox Interactive for an undisclosed amount.
Olsson led another team to advise TransportIT Group on its acquisition of acquisition of Taxi Direkt in October 2010. The deal is interesting as it highlights a trend in Sweden of a growing transport sector.
