Carey Olsen—six promotions

Carey Olsen has elevated six lawyers to the partnership, effective 1 July 2025, as part of its ongoing commitment to developing legal talent across its international network. The promotions span multiple jurisdictions and practice areas, reflecting the breadth of the firm's capabilities in corporate, trusts, litigation and private wealth.

In Bermuda, Alexander Collis becomes partner in the corporate team, where he advises on complex transactions and regulatory frameworks, particularly in the insurance sector. In the Cayman Islands, trusts and private wealth specialist Graham Stoute advises on the full life cycle of trust structures and succession planning, with a focus on cross-border compliance and regulatory matters.

Hong Kong-based litigator Dhanshuklal Vekaria steps up to partner after seven years with the firm. He advises on high-stakes cross-border disputes and insolvency cases, and has a strong track record in contentious trusts and restructuring matters. In Jersey, three new partners—Katherine Tresca, Matthew Ecobichon and Nick Ghazi—bring deep expertise in corporate law, capital markets, structured finance and debt transactions.

Group managing partner Alex Ohlsson said the new partners exemplify Carey Olsen’s culture of excellence and collaboration. He added that the appointments 'underscore our investment in the next generation of leaders who will shape the future of the firm'.
