Nordic Law, a Finland-based law firm today announced that they will begin accepting Bitcoin payments, citing client interest and adapting to new business environments as the reason for the move.

Nordic Law, a Helsinki, Finland based law firm specializing in business and tax law, made the announcement today on both Twitter and their company website that they are now accepting Bitcoin as a method of payment for their legal services.

In what appears to be a first for a law firm accepting Bitcoin, the company says that they have long assisted various domestic entities working within virtual currency markets, especially in dealing with tax issues which arise. Another major reason for the firm’s decision to accept Bitcoin payments would appear to be a growing interest from clients outside the Finnish border.

A notice on the Nordic Law website reads:

    "As we are active with cross border assignments, we have received several inquiries from foreign clients regarding payments in form of bitcoins and whether we accept such payments… as of 1.10.2017 (we) started to offer bitcoin payments as a payment alternative to our clients. In our view all relevant actors, including law firms, must adapt to the new business environments, wherein virtual currencies have a continuously growing significance."
