Maples GroupOffshore law heavyweight Maples Group has a strong reputation in the alternative fund space among fund managers which are appreciative of its 'impressive cross-jurisdictional advice', often working closely with the firm's Dublin and Cayman offices in particular. The arrival of Manfred Dietrich in January 2023 from Norton Rose Fulbright was the latest in a line of several recent hires and enhances the firm's offering within the German-speaking market.
