The firm states it serves over 3,000 private clients annually and is described as one of Norway's largest law firms in private law.

The firm's offering combines traditional legal services with a growing portfolio of digital products. These include IntegrityLog (a secure whistleblowing channel with structured case handling, access control and audit trails), packaged GDPR compliance templates (Basis at NOK 18,000, Support at NOK 25,000, and Implementation priced by agreement with multi-year contracts), and Norwegian Transparency Act compliance packages (Basis at NOK 17,000, Support at NOK 27,000, and Implementation priced by agreement). Distribution is hybrid: physical consultations at the Oslo and Tromsø offices, supplemented by a digital ecosystem of 15+ specialized Norwegian-language subdomain websites for SEO, paid digital advertising across Google, LinkedIn, Meta, Microsoft and TikTok, HubSpot-integrated email newsletters, and breakfast seminars and webinars (often co-hosted with partners such as Euronext and ComplyLog).

Revenue is generated through three streams: (1) hourly professional legal services billed at NOK 2,750-4,450 per hour for private clients and at agreed rates for business clients; (2) recurring Framework Agreements (rammeavtaler) that give business clients predictable, priority access to legal advice; and (3) one-time or multi-year digital compliance product sales. Ownership is internal/partner-based with no evidence of external private equity, venture capital or institutional investors. Leadership is anchored by Managing Partner Finn Linde Eriksen in Oslo and partner Tom Lunde in Tromsø.
