About

SANDS traces its roots to 1989, when Morten Steenstrup founded Advokatfirmaet Steenstrup in Oslo; the firm became Steenstrup Stordrange after Bjørn Stordrange joined around 2000, and later took the SANDS name. Today it is one of Norway's largest full-service business law firms, with 220 employees across six Norwegian offices and a London office opened in July 2025 — and a long-standing adviser to the fisheries and aquaculture industry.
