Finnish leader Hannes Snellman is launching in Stockholm, bringing in five high-profile Swedish partners from three different firms – Linklaters, Vinge and Setterwalls.

Linklaters’ Stockholm head of litigation and arbitration Martin Wallin, who announced that he was leaving to join Swedish independent Setterwalls only last month, is among the partners, along with three M&A and capital markets partners from Setterwalls – Soren Lindstrom, Richard Akerman and Jan Jensen.
