Agenda Advokatbyrå AB

What Agenda Advokatbyrå AB does

Agenda Advokatbyrå AB is a privately held Swedish business law firm (aktiebolag) headquartered at Dragarbrunnsgatan 36 C in Uppsala, with approximately 19-20 employees including partners, associates, administrative staff, and law students. Originally established as Ahlford advokatbyrå and rebranded under the Agenda name, the firm offers advisory services across 12 practice areas: corporate and association law, contract law, dispute resolution, business advisory and compliance, public and social law, business criminal law, M&A transactions, real estate law, construction law, life science, public procurement, and economic family law. Its partner team includes Hanna Pontén Brattgård (VD), Mats Åleskog, Andreas Sjödin, Agnes Domar, Martin Henning, and Ylva Lindahl Hennel, several with 15-35+ years of post-qualification experience and prior tenures at Swedish courts and tribunals.

The firm's client base spans three principal verticals: the real-estate sector (clients such as Bjerking AB and SH bygg), owner-managed and family-owned companies, and the public sector — the latter including approximately 40 of Sweden's municipalities served in social-law matters (LVU, LVM, LSS) as well as in public-procurement disputes. Agenda operates under a relationship-driven, sales-led GTM emphasizing long-term advisory partnerships over transactional engagements, supported by content marketing, community partnerships (Företagarna Uppsala, Uppsala Innovation Centre, Connect Sverige), and consecutive nominations to the Årets Advokatbyrå (Law Firm of the Year) listing.

Revenue is generated exclusively through professional legal services billed on an hourly basis, with fees determined per the Swedish Bar Association (Sveriges advokatsamfund) regulations based on skill/experience, time spent, results achieved, matter value, risk, and time pressure. Monthly invoicing is standard, advance payments may be required, and all amounts exclude VAT. The firm has no disclosed external investors, no parent company, and no proprietary technology platform — it is a single-office, partner-led practice that undertakes engagements throughout Sweden via reputation-based client acquisition despite its Uppsala footprint.

Comparable to Agenda's Life Science practice and broader corporate work, though operating as part of a much larger international network with deeper sector capabilities.
• Setterwalls Advokatbyrå: One of Sweden's leading full-service business law firms with offices in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö, and Uppsala. Directly comparable as a Swedish business-law practice serving owner-managed companies, real estate, and public-sector clients, but operating at materially larger scale and broader geographic coverage than Agenda.
• Vinge: Major Swedish full-service business law firm with strong transactional, corporate, and dispute resolution practices. Competes with Agenda for owner-managed company and mid-market corporate work, but offers broader geographic and international footprint.
