Carey Olsen partners Russell Clark, Elaine Gray and Natasha Kapp (Guernsey), Keith Dixon, Andreas Kistler and Siobhan Riley (Jersey) have all been recognised as ‘Global Elite’ in the 2020/21 edition of Legal Week’s Private Client Global Elite Directory.
In addition, Jersey partner Alexa Saunders and counsel Louise Woolrich have been identified as ‘Ones to Watch’.
Launched in 2017, the Private Client Global Elite Directory is billed as ‘the list of the world’s most respected lawyers advising ultra-high-net-worth clients’ and serves as a respected handbook of leading private client lawyers and trust and estate litigators.
The 2020/21 edition received more than 6,000 entries, resulting in recommendations for 300 ‘Global Elite’ lawyers and 150 ‘Ones to Watch’. Those included in the directory are determined by the number of nominations an individual receives from industry peers, the depth and breadth of their experience, high levels of client service and their international network, including the range of jurisdictions qualified in and their participation in cross-border work.
In total, 12 members of Carey Olsen’s global trusts and private wealth practice have been recognised in this year’s edition of the Private Client Global Elite Directory, with those in Guernsey and Jersey joined by colleagues from the firm’s Bermuda, British Virgin Islands and Cayman Islands offices.
