Constitutional Law and Administrative Law

Constitutional law

We provide advice on constitutional law and we have advised both public authorities and private clients in respect of Article 73 of the Danish Constitution about the right of private property being inviolable.

We also provide advice on a number of other issues relating to constitutional law such as the importance of the rules of freedom of speech to advertising, the importance to private institutions of the national appropriation provisions and the compliance of Danish acts with the Danish Constitution.

High-profile cases

We are conducting several high-profile cases before the Danish Supreme Court and we conducted the extremely important case about the relation between the Danish Constitution and Denmark's accession to the Treaty on the European Union.

Experts on constitutional law

Several of our partners have lectured on constitutional law at the University of Copenhagen.

Administrative law

We frequently advise on administrative law in a wide range of areas of the law. We have extensive experience in the area of public-private collaborations and our clients include numerous public authorities, local utility companies and businesses.

The importance of administrative law

Administrative law is a legal discipline that has developed rapidly concurrently with the growth in public administration. Administrative law is of central importance in matters involving local authorities' liability, municipal law, competition law, environmental law, tax law and a large number of other areas of the law in which public administration is involved.

In the area of municipal law we have assisted a number of local authorities with issues relating to the limits of the rules governing municipal government and the municipal statutes.

Experts on administrative law

Several of our partners have lectured on administrative law at the University of Copenhagen and have contributed to text books and journals on the subject.
