Dispute Resolution - Guernsey
What the Team is Known For
Babbé has a high-calibre litigation group with a highly regarded team of Guernsey advocates who regularly litigate in court. It works with both plaintiffs and defendants on contentious insolvency and negligence claims. It counts a sizeable number of major financial institutions and local trust companies among its clients. The team is also capable of handling regulatory issues.
Strengths
They are the best value for money out of any of the Guernsey dispute resolution teams I've dealt with.
I have received excellent, top-notch advice from the whole team, especially at partner level. They give fantastic, prompt service at all times without exception.
They're easy to deal with, pragmatic, responsive and thorough and just nice to work with.
They are remarkably quick to attend to any questions or concerns. They work efficiently, and do not waste time. I never have to chase them, as I know they are on it.
Work Highlights
Babbé advised United States National Bank Association and Acis Capital Management LP on a dispute involving Acis, Joshua Terry, James Dondero and Highland Capital regarding high-value collateral loan obligations domiciled in the Cayman Islands.
