The first conversation is free for up to 30 minutes and available by phone, video, or in person. No documents are required before the call. Consultations are subject to an initial matter and conflict review. Contacting the firm does not create a lawyer-client relationship.
California families
California clients may be far from Sweden geographically, but Swedish inheritance work can often begin with remote document review, a clear timeline, and a first call focused on Swedish authority, banks, and estate distribution.
The firm does not claim to practice California law. If a California probate, tax, real-estate, or court issue exists, that work should be reviewed by appropriately licensed U.S. advisers.
California is usually nine hours behind Sweden, so early California calls typically correspond to late afternoon or evening in Sweden.
