The Guernsey law firm is one of three shortlisted in the Litigation and Dispute Resolution Awards category.

The American Lawyer Awards honour outstanding achievements in the legal profession and this year received more than 200 entries from around the world detailing the work performed across four categories: pro bono, finance, mergers and acquisitions and dispute resolution.

The overall winners of each category will be announced in New York on 5 December.

Ian Swan, Partner at Babbé, said: “Being finalists in The American Lawyer Awards is a strong endorsement of the expertise and flair for which we pride ourselves and has helped to put our Guernsey firm well and truly on the global map. We are proud of our work on Carlyle and it is great to see it widely recognised.”
