Setterwalls is honoured as Sweden Law Firm of the Year at the Chambers Europe Awards 2026. The recognition reflects a year of exceptional progress and solidifies Setterwalls’ position as one of the leading full-service law firms with a strong national and international presence. 

As a premier distinction in the European legal industry, the Chambers Europe Awards recognise excellence in legal expertise, strategic growth, and innovation. The award confirms Setterwalls’ position as a leading force and an agile challenger in the industry.

Commenting on the award, Henrik Kjellander, Executive Partner at Setterwalls, says:

It reflects years of strategic investments in our people, our technology, and our ability to support clients in large and complex matters of strategic impact. Above all, it is a testament to the trust our clients place in us and the dedication of our teams across the firm.”

Driving Market Growth and Client Excellence
Setterwalls’ recent trajectory highlights its role as a key growth driver in the Swedish legal sector. According to Affärsvärlden’s Industry Report (Spring 2026), the firm reached a 9 per cent growth rate, significantly outpacing the market average.

This momentum is a result of a long-term strategy that integrates pioneering and innovative workflows with proactive legal advice, with the impact now evident across both client work and firm development. The evolution is also reflected in Setterwalls’ strongest Chambers results to date, encompassing 15 ranked practice areas, five Band 1 rankings, and 36 individually ranked lawyers.

With a legacy dating back to 1878, Setterwalls continues to combine its deep national roots with an international outlook. The firm remains defined by its ability to handle strategically significant matters while providing the constructive challenge necessary for long-term business development.

Henrik Kjellander concludes by highlighting the collaboration as part of the success:

“We are particularly grateful to all our clients and peers who have taken valuable time to provide Chambers and Partners with such excellent feedback. Exciting times lie ahead, and we are proud to be at the forefront of progress. We also want to express our gratitude to Chambers and Partners for the recognition. Thank you!”
