Historie

Sandroos Advokatfirma, der blev etableret i 2010 med særligt fokus på Energi, Offshore og relaterede maritime brancher, fusionerede i 2015 med Advokat Jesper Windahl, der i en lang årrække har haft hovedområder inden for shipping og Sø- og transport.

I forbindelse med fusionen blev optaget yderligere partnere med specialer indenfor firmaets forretningsområder, hvorved Windahl Sandroos & Co. Advokatpartnerselskab blev etableret. Firmaet flyttede samtidig til adressen Frederiksgade 7.

Advokatfirmaet skiftede siden navn til WSCO Advokatpartnerselskab, og i 2019 blev advokat Christian Werenberg optaget som partner, hvorved WSCO’s forretningsområder inden for entreprise blev udbygget.

Samme år flyttede advokatfirmaet til sine nuværende kontorer i Dehns Palæ, Frederiksgade 17.
