Mourant has been awarded the title of Offshore Law Firm of the Year for a fourth time, including the inaugural award in 2004.

“It’s fantastic to see our exceptional global team recognised this way,” said Global Managing Partner Jonathan Rigby.

“I’m immensely proud of everyone at Mourant for the part they’ve played, individually and collectively, in delivering our continued growth and success, and extremely grateful to our clients for their loyalty and support.

“These are extraordinary times, and I continue to be deeply impressed by the resilience, flexibility and team spirit on display throughout the firm, and the way our people have come together to support one another and our clients.”

Mourant’s award submission outlined their vision and strategy, and entrepreneurial, client-focused approach. In particular, it focussed on firm’s 20th successive year as the leading legal adviser for funds in Jersey, and standout client mandates such as Shire Plc’s £46 billion takeover, the largest ever takeover of a Jersey incorporated company.

“It’s certainly been a stand-out year, on a number of different levels,” said Mr Rigby. “It’s fantastic to receive recognition for the successful delivery of our strategy.”
