The Maples Group is pleased
to announce that it has once again been recognised in the latest
edition of the Chambers High Net Worth Guide. Renowned as a 'leading
firm', the Maples Group's law firm was the only law firm within this
year's guide to achieve a Band One ranking at both a firm and
individual level.


These accolades are a
continued testament to the Group's strength and expertise in the
private wealth and international trusts industry with sources
describing the firm as 'top of the market' and 'a top-tier firm in
the offshore world.'


In addition to the law
firm's Band One ranking, partners Morven McMillan and Ray Davern and
associate Maxine Bodden maintained their top rankings this year.


Morven McMillan, partner and
head of the Trusts & Private Client team in the Cayman Islands,
was ranked as a Leading Individual within Band One. Interviewees
described her as 'the number one expert for Cayman work' and noted
her 'easy manner, her attention to detail, her acute awareness of the
file are her best attributes.'


London-based partner Ray
Davern was once again recognised as a Foreign Expert Based Abroad and
was praised as 'Absolutely superb and has the knack for bringing all
his academic knowledge and understanding onto practical legal matters
and identifies exactly what clients need. He
has a unique combination of detailed technical knowledge while also
being very pragmatic.' A fellow practitioner stated he is a 'very
bright trust lawyer.'


Ranked under the category of
Associate to Watch, Maxine Bodden was commended by her peers, 'she is
very smart, very personable and knows both the Cayman market and the
Cayman legal system from back to front.' An interviewee acknowledged
her as 'a go-to person of succession and estate matters. She knows
succession law backwards. She is the first person I'd recommend on
island on the estates side.'


Chambers High Net Worth
ranks the top lawyers and law firms for international private wealth.
The guide covers private wealth management work and related
specialism in key jurisdictions around the world, featuring in-depth
editorial about the leading professional advisers to wealthy
individuals and families in each market.
