Short answer
Yes. Attorly covers Norwegian law with jurisdiction-specific review context, and its legal research reads Lovdata and EUR-Lex (EU law). Contracts are drafted in Norwegian Bokmål by default, and the interface is available in Norwegian Bokmål. In the latest published statute-retrieval benchmark, Attorly found the governing statute in 11 of 11 tasks for Norway.

What the contract review checks under Norwegian law
When the Word add-in reviews a contract governed by Norwegian law, the model is given these jurisdiction notes, quoted here exactly as the product uses them:
Key references: Avtaleloven (the Contracts Act), in particular the §36 unreasonableness standard, and Kjøpsloven / Forbrukerkjøpsloven for sales. Consumer protection is strict: clauses that shift statutory risk to a consumer are routinely set aside. Norwegian contracts are typically leaner than US drafts and often omit separate "Definitions" sections or extensive boilerplate — do NOT flag the absence of US-style definitions or recitals as a defect.
The notes steer what the review looks for. They are not a complete statement of the law, and the model still has to read the contract.

Who it fits, and who it does not
Best for:
- Reviewing and drafting contracts governed by Norwegian law, with context for its legal tradition and default drafting language.
- Research questions answered from Lovdata, with citations to the sources each answer relies on.
- Cross-border work that also turns on EU law, which research reads from EUR-Lex alongside the national sources.
Not the best fit for:
- Relying on an answer without opening its sources: in the latest answer benchmark, 1 of 7 answers on Norwegian law contained a wrong or mis-cited claim.
- Decisions that need a lawyer’s sign-off. Attorly gives legal information, not legal advice; a qualified lawyer should check anything you rely on.
