Danish term or phrase: være nærmest til
HI, I would like some help verying whenter I'm missing something with the phrase. Would the following example be

"the company should have been the first to consider". It does seem to fit with the overall context of the document which is a lawsuit over whether the insurance company is at fault for not advising the company to get a certain type of cybercrime coverage.

Thanks for your help!


Virksomheden har været nærmest til i første række selv at overveje, om en – klart afgrænset – dækning af ”tredjemands netbankindbrud” var tilstrækkelig for virksomheden.

The company were themselves the immediate party to first of all consider....


Explanation:
I assume that it is a defensive statement - meaning 'they were the first to consider'??? if not perhaps 'should have been' would be better

The insurer as the insuring party incurred in negligence for failing to consider whether


Explanation:
This is a long shot but here goes:

The insurer as the insuring party incurred in negligence for failing to consider whether a - clearly restricted - coverage of "third-party online banking burglary" was insufficient for its customer as the insured party.

Misunderstood the redundancy in the misleading "virksomhed" part.

A reinterpretation would then be:

The insured party incurred in negligence for failing to consider whether - clearly restricted - "third-party online banking burglary" coverage was sufficient to meet its cybercrime coverage requirements.

tweaking the "virksomhed" part:

The insured company incurred in negligence for failing to consider whether - clearly restricted - "third-party online banking burglary" coverage was sufficient to meet its cybercrime coverage requirements.
