Introduction
These general terms and conditions apply to all assignments and advice provided by the firm since its establishment on 6 June 2025. By issuing instructions or relying on advice, the client is deemed to have accepted these terms. Any deviations from the terms must be agreed in writing. The terms apply to the entire scope of the assignment.

Scope of the Assignment
The content and scope of an assignment may be specified in a written or oral engagement confirmation. The assignment may be modified during its course depending on instructions or changing circumstances. Advice and services are provided solely based on the facts and instructions presented in the specific assignment and apply only for the purpose for which they were given. Unless otherwise stated, the firm acts based on instructions from the client’s appointed representatives, who are presumed to be authorized. Advice is based on the legal situation at the time it is provided, and the firm undertakes no obligation to update such advice in light of subsequent legal developments. No guarantee is provided regarding the outcome of the matter. The assignment does not include tax, financial, accounting, or commercial advice. The firm is therefore not liable for consequences arising from decisions, investments, or transactions based on such considerations. Advice is limited to Swedish law. Any statements regarding legal matters in other jurisdictions are based solely on general experience and shall not be considered binding legal advice.

Limitation of Liability
The total liability for any assignment is limited to SEK 3,000,000. No reductions in price or contractual penalties may be claimed in addition to compensation for damages. This limitation also applies to multiple damages arising from the same or similar act or omission. The firm is not liable for damages resulting from compliance with the law, the Swedish Bar Association’s professional rules, or the use of advice beyond its intended purpose. If several advisers can be held liable for the same damage, the agency’s above liability of up to SEK 3,000,000 is further limited on a pro rata basis in relation to the number of other advisers.

Intellectual Property Rights
All intellectual property rights to work results belong to the firm. The client is granted a right to use such results for the specific purpose for which they were produced. Work results may not be publicly distributed or used for marketing purposes without prior written consent.

Fees and Expenses
Fees are determined in accordance with the Code of Professional Conduct for lawyers and must be reasonable. Factors influencing the level of fees may include time spent, complexity and significance of the matter, urgency and work outside regular business hours, the value of the matter, the level of skill, expertise, and resources required, the results achieved. An estimate of expected fees can be provided upon request, but such estimates are not binding. In addition to fees, reasonable out-of-pocket expenses may be charged. Value-added tax (VAT) is added where applicable in accordance with current legislation.

Invoicing and Payment
Unless otherwise agreed, invoicing is carried out on an ongoing basis. The firm may request advance payment to be applied against future invoices. The final amount payable may differ from the advance. Invoices normally have a 14-day payment term. In the event of late payment, statutory interest is charged in accordance with the Swedish Interest Act. In legal proceedings or arbitration, the losing party may be ordered to pay the prevailing party’s legal costs. However, full compensation is rarely awarded. The client is always responsible for payment of the firm’s fees and expenses, regardless of the outcome. If fees are covered in whole or in part by legal aid or insurance, the client is still liable for any portion not covered.

Termination of the Assignment
The client may terminate the assignment at any time but remains liable for payment of services rendered and costs incurred up to the point of termination. The firm may decline or withdraw from an assignment in accordance with applicable law and professional rules, for example in cases of insufficient identification, suspected money laundering, conflicts of interest, non-payment, or loss of confidence. In the event of a conflict of interest, the firm may not represent parties with opposing interests. A conflict check is performed before accepting an assignment, but new circumstances may arise during the course of the matter. Clients are therefore encouraged to promptly provide any relevant information regarding potential or actual conflicts of interest.

Personal Data
Advokat Oscar Wallin is the data controller for personal data collected in connection with assignments. Further information on the processing of personal data is available in the firm’s Privacy Policy at www.owadvokat.se.

Complaints and Claims
Any claims must be submitted no later than three months after the circumstances giving rise to the claim became known or should reasonably have become known. Failure to submit a claim within this period will result in forfeiture of the right to claim.
