Vinge raids Lindahl ... again

Swedish law firm Vinge has hired IP specialist Ulf Dahlgren to its Stockholm office from rivals Lindahl, following Håkan Borgenhäll’s move from the same firm in April.

Dahlgren, who was senior counsel at Lindahl, is primarily a patent litigator in the fields of pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, electronics and mechanics. He also has arbitration experience, both as counsel and as an arbitrator.

Borgenhäll, who now heads Vinge’s IP practice, welcomed Dahlgren to the firm. Both lawyers worked at IP boutique RydinCarlsten before its merger with Lindahl in 2009.

“With a solid foundation of some 15 lawyers who focus on intellectual property law, we are in the process of building a dedicated team that can offer legal advice within the entire spectrum of intellectual property law,” Borgenhäll said.

“Ulf will be a very important component in our efforts to widen our capacity and competence.” Vinge is a full service law firm with approximately 450 employees across seven offices.
