Maples and Calder’s Hong Kong office, which primarily advises on Cayman Islands and British Virgin Islands law, has 34 lawyers including 16 partners.

Earlier this month, the firm promoted trust and private wealth specialist Richard Grasby as well as investment funds lawyers James Gaden and Terence Ho to its partnership in Hong Kong.
