allowing us to provide clients in Asia and the Middle East with
time-zone friendly Bermuda advice and execution support, adding to
the strength of our team of highly talented lawyers in
Bermuda.

have earned a solid reputation over the past 15 years in the Asia
market for delivering top-quality Cayman and BVI legal advice.
We're excited to have been able to expand our offering to
include Bermuda law recently from Hong Kong. This advanced offering
and the arrival of Nick will further enhance our ability to provide
a one-stop offshore solution for our clients."
Commenting on joining Walkers, Nick said: "I am delighted to
be joining such a well-regarded international offshore firm, which
has a top-tier reputation in Hong Kong and globally. I look forward
