About Melø

One step at a time

We have yet to have the pleasure of meeting a client who wishes to appear in court. That is why we do our utmost to work preventively. Our efforts are concentrated on reducing and not escalating the level of conflict. We strive to resolve the matter as quickly and efficiently as possible, not prolong it. We are genuinely concerned that there must be proportionality between the use of resources and the case, and the significance of the dispute in question. As such, a great deal of our activities are concentrated around advisory services and out-of-court dispute resolution.

At the same time, we will not falter in making our stand where necessary. All our lawyers have experience in bringing civil disputes before the court and in assisting in out-of-court dispute resolution, negotiations or mediation. We always have the client's interests firmly in mind and do our utmost to achieve the best possible result.

The Norwegian Bar Association

All our lawyers are members of the The Norwegian Bar Association, which is the lawyers' professional and interest body in Norway. This entails mandatory continuous education, in addition to written assignment confirmation regarding new assignments.

Privacy Policy

We take your privacy seriously. Our privacy policy, which is prepared on the basis of the Norwegian Bar Association's standard and in accordance with GDPR, is available here.

Code of conduct

As lawyers, we are governed by Code of conduct, which aims to ensure that legal practice is conducted in accordance with ethical principles.

Legal Aid Coverage

We assist you in scrutinising insurance policies to determine whether you are entitled to legal aid coverage or free legal assistance whenever applicable.

Calculation of fees

Information is provided on how we calculate our fees. Our fees are always reasonable relative to the assignment and work undertaken.

Duty of confidentiality

As lawyers, we are subject to statutory and penal sanctioned confidentiality. In addition, according to the Code of conduct section 2.3, we have a duty of confidentiality. Information that we become aware of through our work as lawyers must therefore be treated confidentially even when the information is not covered by the statutory duty of confidentiality. Duty of confidentiality is not limited by time.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Everyone can do something. It is our aim to make that little difference. As such, we have chosen to support two organisations which do a lot of good, Plan and Amnesty International.

Plan

Plan International is a global development and humanitarian organisation, working to provide children with a brighter future and striving for a just world. Plan operates in more than 50 developing countries promoting children’s rights through development and humanitarian projects in issues like health-care, education and protection from violence.

Amnesty International

Amnesty International is a global movement of more than 7 million people who take injustice personally. They campaign for a world where human rights are enjoyed by everybody.
