Dispute Resolution Lawyers in the Cayman Islands – what to expect
The Cayman Islands’ Dispute Resolution market can offer lawyers complex, high-value and multijurisdictional disputes comparable in quality to other major global financial centres. Lawyers tend to work on a broad range of matters involving insolvency, trusts, corporate, finance and general commercial.
DR teams in Cayman tend to be leaner than teams onshore and associates tend to find that they have more Partner access. Lawyers also tend to find that they have more of a focus on law than case management – as well as Cayman trials, lawyers also have a portfolio of disputes occurring in jurisdictions for which they are providing legal opinions. This also means that their workload is less intensive and their time easier to manage.
Junior lawyers tend to have more opportunity for advocacy in Cayman. There is no distinction between solicitors and barristers in the jurisdiction, meaning even solicitors can stand!
