Chambers Global Recognises 60 Maples Lawyers in 2021 Guide

Maples and Calder, the Maples Group's law firm, is pleased to announce that it has once again earned top rankings in the 2021 edition of Chambers Global. The international law firm received 20 practice group placements across its Dublin, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Dubai, Hong Kong, Jersey, London and Singapore locations. The firm was awarded Band 1 placement for 10 of its practice groups, with 60 of its global lawyers receiving individual recognition this year. 

Notably, the guide recognised the firm as "service-focused", "responsive and knowledgeable" and "a stand-out firm" while the firm's lawyers are described as "very strong", "reliable" and "exceptional". Significantly, the rankings and reviews are based on interviews with the firm's global clients and industry peers, amongst other things.

Commenting on the rankings, Global Managing Partner, Jonathan Green, said "This international recognition underscores the quality of our lawyers and their commitment to delivering excellent service to clients, whatever the global circumstances. We are very pleased to see so many of our locations earning top placements and we are extremely grateful to our clients for their endorsement of our legal expertise and of our team's focus on client service across our local and global practice areas".

The first Chambers rankings were published in 1990 and the guides currently research over 200 jurisdictions worldwide.  Individual lawyers are ranked on the basis of their legal knowledge and experience, their ability, their effectiveness, and their client service. Law firm departments are ranked on the qualities of their lawyers as well as the effectiveness and capability of the department as a whole.
