Five new partners for Carey Olsen in Bermuda, Jersey and London

The five promotions bring the total number of partners across the Carey Olsen group to 68.

Carey Olsen group managing partner Alex Ohlsson said: "I would like to congratulate Matthew, Kyle, Sam, Jay and Louise on joining the partnership. Each of them has demonstrated exceptional technical knowledge in their time with the firm as well as total dedication to providing a high level of client service. The fact that these promotions are spread across three of our offices speaks volumes to the strength and success of our global offering."

Kyle has also practised in the firm's Hong Kong office, where he helped to launch Carey Olsen's Bermuda law  offering to Asia clients.
