The firm also retained the Law Firm of the Year awards for the Caribbean and added the runner-up award for Guernsey.

The Citywealth IFC awards highlight excellence in private wealth, and are judged by an international panel, with criteria stressing technical expertise, innovative solutions, client service initiatives, leadership and vision.

Sally Edwards (pictured), Global Head of Private Client and Trusts, said: “This is a great way to start 2018. Having invested in growing our global trusts team last year with several targeted hires at associate as well as partner level, these awards underline the reputation of the strength of our team.

“It is just four months since we were named International Legal Team of the Year by STEP, and to receive more awards that focus on the international offering of our private client  and trusts teams reflects the skill and hard work of everyone in the team.”
