Carey Olsen shortlisted for three STEP Private Client Awards

Carey Olsen is a finalist in three categories at the 2021/22 STEP Private Client Awards - International Legal Team of the Year; Contentious Trusts and Estates Team of the Year; and Private Client Legal Team of the Year.

The awards, which are widely recognised as the most prestigious in the private client and wealth management industry, look to highlight excellence among private client lawyers, accountants, barristers, bankers, trust managers and financial advisers.

Carey Olsen is the only offshore law firm with multiple nominations across the 23 categories. In total, STEP received 297 entries for this year's awards.

News of the shortlisting is the latest recognition for Carey Olsen's trusts and private wealth practice, with the firm being named best Private Client Offshore Law Firm at the 2021 eprivateclient Excellence Awards last month. Other recent success includes back-to-back wins in the offshore law firm category at both the Chambers High Net Worth Awards and WealthBriefing European Awards.

Russell Clark, partner and head of the trusts and private wealth practice in Guernsey, said: "To be named a finalist in three categories at the STEP Private Client Awards is an incredibly strong endorsement of the quality of the global trusts and private wealth team at Carey Olsen, and the high standards of client service and legal advice we are offering across our practices in Bermuda, the British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Guernsey and Jersey."

Winners of the STEP Private Client Awards will be announced at a virtual ceremony on Thursday 23 September.
