Offshore global law firm Carey Olsen has retained its tier one position in Guernsey and Jersey for both its financial and corporate and investment funds advice in International Financial Law Review 1000 (IFLR1000).
IFLR1000 rankings are based on independent research over a 12-month period and serve as a definitive guide to the world’s leading financial law firms.
Clients said of Carey Olsen: “The best offshore law firm both in terms of service and for technical capability and drafting”, “very fast, strategically helpful advice” and "responsive, technical and excellent to deal with”.
A total of 20 Carey Olsen lawyers (nine of whom are newcomers to the rankings this year), have been recognised as ‘Leading Lawyers’ – a category that profiles individuals who have proven themselves to be among the best in their respective markets and who have a track record of innovative work – with five lawyers recommended as ‘Rising Stars’.
Carey Olsen chairman John Kelleher (pictured) says: “The integrity of rankings such as the IFLR1000 serve to underline Carey Olsen’s standing in the financial, corporate and investment funds sectors and it is heartening to know our commitment to excellence, with both our established experts and our rising stars, is considered noteworthy by our clients and peers.”
In the Caribbean, the firm's growing Cayman Islands practice has moved into tier three for financial and corporate advice and has remained in tier three for investment funds, whilst the firm’s BVI office is ranked for financial and corporate advice.
