Carey Olsen’s Cayman Islands office opens for business
Carey Olsen has officially opened its new office in the Cayman Islands.
The law firm, which already has offices in Guernsey, Jersey and London, has put in place lead partners Jason Allison, Nick Bullmore, Jarrod Farley and Anthony McKenzie to develop the Cayman Islands practice.
The four lawyers are well known in the market and each specialises in corporate, finance and investment funds work.
Carey Olsen announced its intention to establish a Cayman Islands office in June when managing partner, Alex Ohlsson, said the firm had encountered an increasing demand for the provision of Cayman Islands and British Virgin Islands legal advice from its clients.
Mr Ohlsson said: “The new office represents a key step forward in the extension of Carey Olsen’s legal services to our clients. I am confident that our new partners and wider team members will build a solid platform on which to grow Carey Olsen’s presence and deliver our exceptionally high standards of service.”
Jason Allison, managing partner of Carey Olsen in the Cayman Islands, said: “We are very pleased to have joined Carey Olsen and also to have assembled a team with such strong backgrounds to launch the new office. Our focus will be on providing the high-quality, commercial and responsive service that clients demand.”
“It is like dealing with a magic circle firm outside London.” (Source: Chambers and Partners.)
