Kastell boosts its dispute resolution team further with multiple senior recruitments

We are delighted to announce that Catarina Rivero Lira and Jakob Andersson, both members of the Swedish Bar, have joined Kastell as Senior Associates. The recruitment of Catarina and Jakob is part of a strategic focus on dispute resolution, which will include further recruitment of a senior lawyer later this spring. 

“We are extremely proud and pleased that Catarina and Jakob have chosen to join us”, says Kastell’s managing partner Carl Norén. “We have seen a significant increase in the demand for our dispute resolution services in the past few years, and that demand does not seem to be subsiding. Our clients obviously appreciate what Kastell has to offer, as it means that they can be confident that their matters will be handled by a leading expert. Through the recruitment of Catarina and Jakob, we are ensuring that we can continue to deliver at the highest possible level.”

It is worth noting that Catarina and Jakob both have comprehensive experience of commercial dispute resolution within several different sectors, built up over several years at prominent law firms. Catarina focusses on arbitration, and is currently participating in the Swedish Arbitration Association and SCC’s prestigious arbitrator programme, while Jakob is specialised in professional liability, insurance-related disputes and M&A disputes. Jakob is also active in academic work and is regularly published in relevant contexts.
