ABOUT

Pangea Net

We created this international network of independent law firms because we believe that clients’ business interests and opportunities are best served through a focused cooperation between committed law firms and high-quality lawyers.

WHO WE ARE

Our core values

When Pangea Net was founded in 2009, we rejected the typical legal network model – the online directory list of law firms whose thousands of members rarely ever meet. We instead made a promise that our network would grow organically, attracting firms that share a common commitment to:

1

Ensuring that members really get to know each other

2

Delivering exceptional client service

3

Providing business solutions, not theoretical legal memos

4

Understanding the evolved needs of today’s global business players.

WHERE WE ARE

Geographic footprint

Pangea Net stands out for its international outlook. Our members understand the special needs of clients operating internationally, their position in global markets and their justified demands with regard to the efficiency exercised by, and the practicability of solutions presented by, their legal counsel.

LEADERSHIP

Governance

Pangea Net is run on an international association basis with a fully transparent and flexible governance.

We have put in place a lean and effective governance infrastructure with an Executive Board whose members are appointed for a two-year mandate that can be renewed.

Our Board members meet monthly to set strategic directions, monitor and improve operations, oversee management, expand relationships within the network and beyond and check that quality standards are met. They are supported in their responsibilities by a Network Operating Officer.

NETWORK

Our members

We ensure the highest standards across our membership through the implementation of strict admissions criteria, membership policies, peer-to-peer feedback and regular reviews by the Executive Board.

MEET OUR MEMBERS

The matters that best illustrate the network’s value are the ones where we work intensely together toward a shared outcome, not simply hand the file over and walk away.

MICHIEL BEUTELS, LITIGUARD

Treat every incoming motter as the most important. Thot is the standard we hold ourselves to, and the standard we expect in return.

ØYSTEIN LØKEN, KVALE

When I prioritize incoming matters, I treat Pangea as my most important client. Everything else follows from that mindset.”

SØJREN STIG LANGLØKKE HANSEN, ANDERSEN

Pangea Net is committed to ensuring that our members really get to know and understand each other.
