Hassans International Law Firm Limited has become the latest Strategic Partner to join the Commonwealth Enterprise & Investment Council (CWEIC) and the Commonwealth Legal Network.

Hassans was founded in 1939 and is the largest law firm in Gibraltar with 37 partners, 45 other lawyers and, along with its associated fiduciary arm Line Group, 220 staff in total. The firm has an international clientele, links with major European and US law firms and has consistently been listed as the leading law firm in Gibraltar by Chambers and Partners and Legal 500 across the majority of its practice areas.

James Levy CBE QC, Senior Partner of Hassans, commented:

“Becoming a Strategic Partner of the CWEIC was an important step for Hassans. As the leading law firm in Gibraltar, it was a natural fit; providing counsel to the extensive global members, and actively developing and promoting mutual trade and investment opportunities amongst our Commonwealth.”

Chair of the Commonwealth Enterprise and Investment Council’s Gibraltar office, Ed Davis CB CBE, commented:

“CWEIC is delighted to welcome Hassans as a Strategic Partner. Their international expertise and wide-ranging professional service offering will in no doubt add great value to our network and help strengthen and deepen Gibraltar’s relationships across many of the business sectors of the Commonwealth. We very much look forward to working together.”
