About Ogier

Operating from Redwood House in St Peter Port, the Guernsey office belongs to a multi-jurisdictional legal and professional services group with more than 1,300 people and thirteen locations across Asia, the Caribbean, Europe and the Middle East. The group advises on British Virgin Islands, Cayman, Guernsey, Irish, Jersey and Luxembourg law and combines this with a corporate and fiduciary arm that handles administration of companies, funds and private wealth structures. Clients include financial institutions, fund sponsors, family offices and wealthy families, and the firm runs country desks for German, French and Indian clients plus relocation and expat services for people moving to the Channel Islands and other centres. Beyond legal work it offers tax advice, accounting and financial reporting, regulatory consulting and governance services.

Services

Legal practice spans banking and finance, funds, corporate transactions, regulatory, disputes, property, employment and immigration, and private wealth. The corporate and fiduciary side covers formation and administration of vehicles, directorships, trustee and agency roles, registered office and governance work, fund and investor administration, accounting and financial reporting, and regulatory and compliance support. A tax practice advises on structuring and cross-border questions. Relocation services help individuals and businesses settle in Guernsey, Jersey, Cayman, Dubai and Ireland, including residency and licensing applications.
