We are happy to welcome Lars Albert Jøstensen as a partner at CMS Kluge from 10 February 2025.

Jøstensen joins CMS Kluge from DLA Piper and will strengthen the firm's position in the insurance market. He has extensive experience in insurance, reinsurance and dispute resolution. He is recognised as a Rising Star in Legal 500 and ranked number one Up and Coming lawyer in Insurance Law by Norwegian Financial Daily newspaper (Finansavisens) in 2023 and 2024.

CMS is already one of Europe's leading insurance law firms. We recognise that insurance will become an increasingly important part of our clients' needs in the future, as the risk landscape changes rapidly due to political changes, technological developments and the climate. With Jøstensen's arrival, we are even better equipped to help our clients secure and protect their assets in the future,' says Bjørnar Alterskjær, Managing Partner at CMS Kluge.

–  CMS has a unique position in the insurance market as I have seen it, including during my time in London. I look forward to further developing this practice with a focus on the Norwegian and Nordic markets together with talented colleagues. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone at DLA Piper for many great years, says Lars Albert Jøstensen.
