About Pernille

A sought-after adviser on matters of real estate and construction, Pernille routinely lends her expertise to a broad selection of players in those sectors, advising and representing developers, clients/employers, suppliers and contractors on all stages of a project – from design to signing, construction, handover and disputes (if relevant).

Having provided commercial advice and advice on conflict resolution and disputes since 2012, Pernille has broad insight into commercial law matters. She has a keen ability to grasp critical details in extensive and complex cases, thanks especially to her dealings with construction cases and previous experience from major tax cases. Pernille has extensive experience with litigation and taking of evidence/expert appraisals before the courts as well as the Danish Building and Construction Arbitration Board and expertly leverages that experience in her advice and risk management.

With Pernille as your advisor, you will be met with curiosity, dedication, and honesty. She is a firm believer that the best advice and safeguarding of her clients’ interests will be achievable only through a thorough understanding of both the technical and the commercial issues. Clients will find in Pernille an adviser who will seek a pragmatic and solution-oriented approach whenever possible and, where disputes cannot be avoided, will steer clients safely through. She has a natural flair for clear and straight-forward communication and an unfailing attention to her clients' wishes and concerns throughout the process.

A regular speaker in a network of technical advisers, Pernille also occasionally gives lectures to customers, business associates, and other network members.
