Fenchurch Law expands into Scandinavia with Denmark office launch

Fenchurch Law, the UK’s leading firm working exclusively for insurance policyholders and brokers, has announced plans to offer its specialist legal support across the Nordic region, with the launch of its new Denmark office.

The new office will be run by Morten Christensen, supported by his colleague Maria Bitsch, who have a combined 50 years of experience handling complex insurance and liability disputes across Scandinavia.

Morten brings with him extensive leadership expertise, having previously held the position of Co-Managing Partner, EMEA, at Kennedy’s and having also founded several independent specialist law firms.  He has also been recognised as a leading individual by the Legal 500 for insurance in Denmark for the past 6 years. Maria also brings with her a deep understanding of the insurance industry, the broker sector, and reinsurance, having held senior legal positions at three of the top Danish insurance providers, including the Alm Brand Group.

This announcement coincides with the official opening of Fenchurch Law’s Singapore office and marks another major milestone in the firm’s ongoing global expansion strategy.

Senior Partner at Fenchurch Law, David Pryce, commented: “Today’s opening of our Singapore office, to serve policyholders across the APAC region, and the opening on 1st November of our Copenhagen office, to serve policyholders across the Nordic region, are key milestones towards achieving the firm’s purpose to level the playing field for policyholders globally.  These office openings put us ahead of schedule to achieve our objective of having a presence in every region of the world by 2030.”

Morten Christensen, Managing Partner at Fenchurch Law DK, added: “We’re delighted to be joining Fenchurch Law to establish its presence in Scandinavia, and to be playing a key part in the firm’s growth around the world.

In my experience, I have often found that clients would have been better off with a representative who not only understands the law and the insurance industry but also exclusively stands on their side, which is exactly the type of support we will be offering them.”
