Offshore law firm Ogier is making three staff up to partner in the global litigation team from 1 February 2013: Mathew Newman, who is based in the Guernsey law firm, Rachael Reynolds, who works for the Cayman legal practice, and Nick Williams in the Jersey law firm. 

These three join Katrina Edge and Victoria Yates, who work in the business and trust law group in Jersey, and Paul Lawrence, who leads Ogier Fiduciary Services' real estate business; their move up to partner on the same date was announced last October.

These promotions mean that the firm now has 54 partners, testifying to the firm’s desire to continue to expand in all its jurisdictions, Ogier group chief executive Nick Kershaw said in a statement.
