Carey Olsen is a well regarded name across insolvency and related dispute resolution globally, its Cayman office playing a key role in multi-jurisdictional matters, often working closely with the firm’s substantial teams of litigators in Singapore and Hong Kong. Matters routinely handled by the practice include big ticket liquidations, trust and estate disputes, fraud claims, and a range of commercial litigation. Sam Dawson leads the team and is described by one client as a ‘disarming litigator’. He is particularly strong in financial services cases. ‘Excellent lawyer’ Denis Olarou is another client favourite, and Peter Sherwood remains a go-to contact for insolvencies. The ‘extremely knowledgeable and experienced’ Bernadette Carey is a further name to note, while support on financial services disputes comes from Nigel Smith.
