Ogier’s Global head of Private Wealth, partner Matt Guthrie (pictured among the Ogier team who accepted the award), said: “This recognition represents an enormous amount of hard work from the whole Trusts Advisory Group at Ogier.
“Innovation and dedication are the key words when it comes to Ogier’s position as a leader in the private client sector. Our approach focuses on being client centric. It’s about more than just providing legal advice; it’s about offering tailored, strategic solutions that align with unique situations. Our global presence greatly supports us in this effort.”
Contentious trusts specialist Mathew Newman, a partner and head of Ogier’s Guernsey Dispute Resolution team, added: “Our contentious trusts team is the largest offshore team globally in this sphere in both partner and fee earner count.
