Firm Overview
Harneys is a global offshore law and fiduciary services firm with entrepreneurial thinking. Open, progressive and personable, our multilingual team works alongside leading professional advisers to provide legal, corporate and fiduciary services relating to British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Cyprus, Luxembourg, Anguilla and Bermuda law.
Our Hong Kong office is the hub of our expanding Asia practice and we are one of the largest offshore law firms in the region with 62 lawyers in Asia. Our Shanghai office is the only full-service offshore legal team on the ground in the PRC. We are trusted legal advisers to an international client base including all of the world’s top 30 international law firms, 18 of the world’s 20 largest banks and financial institutions, as well as investment funds and private individuals.
Our lawyers offer the full spectrum of offshore advice across litigation and restructuring, banking and finance, capital markets and investment funds, corporate and commercial, and private wealth and trusts. We have been the world’s leading firm for BVI law advice for decades – we helped to write the BVI’s commercial law and consistently have more BVI legal practitioners than any other firm worldwide. We are globally renowned for our Cayman Islands funds expertise and the structuring of downstream corporate transactions for private equity and venture capital funds.
Our litigation and restructuring practice leads the offshore market in terms of both global reach and expertise. We undertake all aspects of litigation in the BVI and Cayman Islands courts, including shareholder disputes, fraud, asset tracing and contentious trusts. For emergency injunctions, our lawyers work closely with our BVI and Cayman-based litigators to provide a 24-hour seamless service.
Our associated corporate and fiduciary services business, Harneys Fiduciary, delivers the full range of corporate administration, funds, trust and compliance services to many of the world’s leading law firms, corporations, financial institutions and private clients.
