Our legal services

We are specialists in construction, real estate, dispute resolution, and public procurement and are widely recognised as leading experts in these fields.

Our legal advice is founded on a deep understanding of, and genuine interest in, the construction and real estate sectors. The requirements of the construction industry are constantly evolving, with an increasing emphasis on innovation and sustainable solutions. This places significant demands on all industry parties, particularly with regard to contractual and collaborative relationships. 

The core of our legal services is to provide legally sound and practically viable solutions that foster development and new approaches.

On 1 January 2025, we strengthened our profile with the addition of a new practice area: real estate. Real estate is a natural extension of our existing expertise, enabling us to provide holistic advice throughout the projects we are involved in. This allows us to advise on every stage of the construction process, from inception through to completion.

We place great emphasis on building strong personal relationships with our clients. For this reason, we often work in small, dedicated teams that collaborate closely with our clients. We believe this approach ensures the best results and more cost-effective services.

Our clients primarily include public authorities, utility companies, technical consultants, social housing associations, pension funds and real estate investors.

VILTOFT was founded in 1974 by attorney Henrik Viltoft and others and is based in central Copenhagen, close to Nørreport Station.
