What the Team is Known For

New Square Chambers is sought after for its work in a variety of offshore matters such as contentious insolvencies, fraud, general commercial disputes, trusts litigation and asset tracing claims. Members are regularly seen in the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man and the Caribbean, and have appeared in significant matters recently including the Montpelier Services high-profile liquidation case and Kazzaz v Standard Chartered Trust (Guernsey). One instructing solicitor says: "You can’t go wrong if you choose New Square Chambers - great legal services are provided whether advocacy or advisory."

Michelle Green is the senior clerk.
