Our Story

Established in 2015 in Helsinki, Finland, LKOS Law Office is a family-owned boutique business law firm dedicated to advising companies, owners and management teams.

The foundations of LKOS Law Office were laid years earlier. Our story began with a chance meeting in Riga, Latvia in November 2011, where the founding partners discovered a shared vision: to build a first-class business law firm in Helsinki that combines legal expertise, international experience and a commitment to delivering tailored, strategic legal services for corporate clients.

Our journey started in modest premises on Hämeentie, followed by a move to Unioninkatu in 2017. In 2024, we relocated to our current office at Töölönkatu 4, where we continue to serve clients with clarity, commitment and high-quality business law expertise.

As a family-owned firm, our values shape everything we do. Over the years, our family has grown alongside our practice. Our three children have been part of our journey from the beginning, learning firsthand what it means to build, nurture and lead a business. This personal touch is reflected in our culture, our dedication to our work and the long-term relationships we build with our clients.

A Boutique Business Law Firm Built on Experience, Values and Commitment to Clients

Our Mission

Our mission is to support and advise our clients in a way that resolves their legal challenges fully and effectively. At LKOS Law Office, we approach complex legal matters with practical, business-oriented solutions that integrate seamlessly into the daily operations and strategic decision-making of management teams.

Our business lawyers work tirelessly to remove legal obstacles that could hinder our clients’ growth, operations or long-term success. This dedication to clarity, quality and results is the passion that drives our firm.

Our Commitment

We do not aim to be the largest law firm by the number of offices or lawyers. Instead, our objective is to be the first choice for clients facing their most complex legal issues, significant business transactions and high-stakes disputes. Our journey is defined by dedication, growth and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

We look forward to continuing this journey together with our clients—building long-term relationships, achieving meaningful outcomes and reaching new milestones side by side.
