Profile

A Locally Rooted Law Firm with Greenlandic Insight

Arctic Law Greenland ApS is a strongly locally rooted law firm where all employees live and work in Greenland. This means that we all have a strong connection to Greenland, that we know the country’s strengths and challenges, and that we all have a well-developed network in Greenland. This significantly enhances our ability to provide tailored legal advice. Our office holds broad experience and expertise in advising the Greenlandic business sector, while also making ourselves available for private matters – a natural aspect of being a law firm in a society like Greenland.

 

Strong Partnership with Gorrissen Federspiel

Since 2022, the firm has had a permanent and exclusive collaboration with Gorrissen Federspiel in Denmark. This partnership enables us to offer even more specialised advice in larger and more complex cases.

 

Presence Throughout Greenland and International Reach

We assist clients across Greenland, as well as in Denmark and abroad. Our office is located in Nuuk, close to public authorities, the judiciary, and some of the country’s largest public and private organisations. Our lawyers maintain and strengthen relationships with clients and partners outside of Nuuk — both in other Greenlandic towns and internationally — through annual travels and ongoing engagement. We strive to be a visible and competent provider for individuals, businesses, and organisations throughout the country.

 

Professionalism and Strong Relationships as Core Values

We place great emphasis on professionalism, integrity, and sound judgment. We maintain a friendly and approachable working atmosphere and work hard to ensure strong collegial relationships both internally and externally – including with other law offices, the courts, and public authorities.

 

Focus on Continuous Learning and Professional Development

The legal landscape is constantly evolving, and it is crucial for us to keep pace. Education and continuous training are therefore essential to providing professional legal advice and are highly prioritised for all members of our team.

Community Involvement and Pro Bono Work

Arctic Law Greenland takes pride in delivering competent and personalised legal advice in a wide range of contexts. In addition, we engage in extensive pro bono work, including supplementary legal assistance in criminal cases, volunteering at the local legal aid office, and contributing unpaid work in various councils, boards, and professional organisations.

 

Insight Through Community Engagement

We do this not only out of passion, but also because it provides valuable insight into the cohesion of Greenlandic society – insight that strengthens our legal advisory work across the board.
