When an accident happens, questions and assessments of liability arise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have assisted in such cases for over 20 years. The first case we were involved in, was the fatal accident on the Petermann glacier on 20 March 2001. The most serious was the landslide in Lia on 19 December 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There have also been accidents in mining operations, including the fire in Svae Nord in 2005. Here we assisted in what was the largest compensation claim in Norwegian history following a fire in Norway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, we have assisted with assessments after the big fire on the road 232.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\/en\/svalbard\/\">Svalbard office<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"t2-story-chapter__media-wrap\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/iStock-1447089300-scaled-1-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/iStock-1447089300-scaled-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/iStock-1447089300-scaled-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/iStock-1447089300-scaled-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/iStock-1447089300-scaled-1-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/iStock-1447089300-scaled-1.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t<div class=\"alignfull media-align-left wp-block-t2-story-chapter\">\n\t\t<div class=\"t2-story-chapter__content-wrap\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"t2-story-chapter__content-wrap__inner entry-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\t<div \n\t\tclass=\"template-story alignwide wp-block-haavind-block-contact-people\" id=\"contact\"\t\t>\n\t\t<h2 class=\"post-featured-title\">Contact us<\/h2>\n\t\t<div class=\"block-contact-people-list\">\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"t2-featured-content-layout alignwide wp-block-t2-featured-content-layout\">\n<div class=\"t2-featured-single-post t2-featured-content is-post-type-person speciality-employment-pension speciality-food role-partner wp-block-t2-featured-single-post\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull post-featured-image is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n\t<a class=\"t2-post-link wp-block-t2-post-link\" href=\"https:\/\/haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\/en\/people\/geir-steinberg\/\">\n\t<figure style=\"--t2-focal-point: 50% 50%\" class=\"t2-post-featured-image has-image-ratio-3-4 wp-block-t2-post-featured-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"1030\" src=\"https:\/\/haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/Geir-Steinberg.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull post-featured-content is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n\t<a class=\"t2-post-link wp-block-t2-post-link\" href=\"https:\/\/haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\/en\/people\/geir-steinberg\/\"><h2 class=\"t2-post-title wp-block-t2-post-title\">Geir Steinberg<\/h2><\/a>\n\t<div class=\"taxonomy-role wp-block-post-terms\"><a href=\"https:\/\/haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\/en\/role\/partner\/\" rel=\"tag\">Partner<\/a><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"card-info wp-block-t2-people-meta\"><div class=\"card-info__post-meta meta-key-people_email\"><a href=\"mailto:g.steinberg@haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\">g.steinberg@haavind.stage01.dekodes.no<\/a><\/div><div class=\"card-info__post-meta meta-key-people_phone\"><a href=\"tel:+47 916 96 511\">+47 916 96 511<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"t2-story-chapter__media-wrap\"><\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_haavind_back_button_link_url":"https:\/\/haavind.stage01.dekodes.no\/en\/svalbard\/","_haavind_back_button_link_text":"Svalbard office","_haavind_back_button_link_url_open_in_new_tab":false},"categories":[],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.2 (Yoast SEO v24.2) -
