A number of onshore international law firms look to Mourant‘s team for a range of matter types, including acquisition finance, M&A, regulatory advisory work, and private equity backed corporate matters. Recent work has also encompassed an increase in restructurings, reorganisations, and insolvencies. Ian Montgomery is the primary contact on Tortola and is particularly strong on corporate and finance transactions in the real estate, financial services, energy and technology sectors. He works closely with the firm’s other offshore offices, and in the BVI is supported by Marianne Wilson.

Testimonials

  • ‘Mourant are flexible in terms of their approach to case management. For example, they are happy to have direct discussions with opposite lawyers when needed and also happy for lead counsel to take this role where appropriate. We find this is hugely beneficial in getting a deal across the line.’

  • ‘Ian Montgomery is a stand out individual and gets the job done! He and his team are always super responsive and pragmatic with their advice. They do everything that we would expect from offshore counsel in a time pressured environment with exacting clients.’
