Ogier's market-leading strength in depth across its global private wealth hubs and in its international Dispute Resolution team has been recognised at the Citywealth IFC Awards this week, with the firm taking home four awards - the greatest number for any firm in its jurisdictions. Ogier was named law firm of the year – Caribbean, law firm of the year – Guernsey, law firm of the year - Jersey, and law firm of the year – litigation.
This latest industry recognition follows another exceptional year for Ogier's Trusts Advisory Group, which provides contentious and non-contentious private client services, and its wider Dispute Resolution team. Ogier's Trusts Advisory Group is the only one to achieve a top-tier ranking across the board in Cayman, Guernsey and Jersey in all major legal directories, and in the past 12 months the team has been recognised twice as offshore firm of the year at both the eprivateclient excellence awards and the Chambers HNW awards.
The Dispute Resolution team has also grown in response to client demand and developed its broader offering across the globe, with the team instructed on the most significant cases to hit Ogier's jurisdictions, including high-profile cryptocurrency dispute Three Arrows.
This win is the latest milestone for Ogier after a period of record headcount and income growth, a merger with Dublin law firm Ogier Leman, and the expansion of Ogier's jurisdictional footprint with new offices in Singapore and Beijing.
Global senior partner and global head of trust disputes Rachael Reynolds KC said: "This is another excellent showing for our global Trusts Advisory Group and our Dispute Resolution team, demonstrating the calibre of our offering in every jurisdiction. These awards show that our team has the strength in depth to provide a truly global, joined-up service to our clients across timezones. As we continue to grow in response to client demand, we remain focussed on providing a highly personal, responsive service to our clients, and it's great to see this recognised at the Citywealth IFC Awards."
