General terms

These terms apply to engagements with Oakstream Juridik AB unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Information on this website is not advice

The texts on this website are general information about what we work with. They are not legal advice in an individual case and cannot be relied on for decisions. Advice is given only within a confirmed engagement.

When an engagement begins

An engagement begins when we have confirmed it in writing, after checking that there is no conflict of interest. Sending the form or emailing us does not in itself start an engagement, and no deadlines are monitored before the engagement is confirmed.

Scope of the engagement

The engagement covers what is stated in the confirmation. Advice concerns Swedish law and is tailored to the matter at the time it is given — it cannot be reused in a different context. We do not provide tax or accounting advice.

Fees and payment

Fees are normally based on time spent at the hourly rate stated in the engagement confirmation, and may also be affected by the complexity and outcome of the matter. You get a price proposal before work begins and notice if anything materially changes the picture. Disbursements such as application and court fees are added. Invoices are payable within 14 days; thereafter default interest applies under the Swedish Interest Act.

Legal expenses cover and legal aid

We help you check whether your insurance includes legal expenses cover, or whether legal aid can be granted, and handle the application. If cover is granted, you are responsible for the deductible and for any part of the fee the insurance does not cover.

Confidentiality

We treat all information about you and your matter as confidential. Information is disclosed only with your consent, where needed to carry out the engagement, or where we are required by law to do so.

Liability

We are liable for loss caused by error or negligence in the engagement, to the extent that follows from law and from the engagement confirmation. Liability does not cover indirect loss or loss of profit, nor loss arising from your use of the advice in a context other than the one the engagement concerned.

Right of withdrawal for consumers

If you are a consumer and entered into the agreement at a distance, you normally have the right to withdraw within 14 days. If you ask us to begin work during the withdrawal period, we may charge for the work performed up to the point of withdrawal.

If you are not satisfied

Contact us directly — most things can be resolved in a conversation. Consumer disputes can also be reviewed by the National Board for Consumer Disputes (arn.se).

Governing law

Swedish law applies to the engagement and to these terms. Disputes are determined by Swedish courts, with Borås District Court as the court of first instance, unless otherwise agreed.
