Haavind litigators have during 2014 been involved in approximately 200 lawsuits and spent over 750 days in court.

Last year Haavind had nearly 20 percent of all civil cases handled by the Norwegian Supreme Court. The cases litigated by Haavind during autumn 2014 includes among others: tax for the Norwegian tax authorities; tax case for the Norwegian Medical Association related to GP practice; and for the Norwegian Public Road Administration concerning  contract settlement.
