Lakiasiaintoimisto Atte Niemi is a Lahti-based law office that handles criminal and civil matters across Finland. The firm delivers representation in both investigative stages and court proceedings, and it advises clients on a range of civil law topics including contracts, inheritance, real estate and employment-related disputes.

The practice traces its origins to early 2011 when Atte Niemi established the office under the name Asianajotoimisto Atte Niemi Oy; the entity was rebranded as Lakiasiaintoimisto Atte Niemi Oy at the start of 2020 after the firm adjusted its professional affiliations. The office reports extensive litigation experience, having acted for clients in cases at all instance levels up to the Supreme Court and, where necessary, before the European Court of Human Rights.

The firm employs a time-based billing model with published hourly rates and assists clients in securing cost coverage through legal expenses insurance or state legal aid when eligible. It emphasizes pragmatic courtroom advocacy, personalised client communication and continuity of representation from pre-trial stages through appeals.
