HSM Awarded Gold Medal for Immigration Law by Best of Cayman Islands 2023
HSM’s award-winning immigration team has been recognised with a gold medal by the Best of Cayman Islands 2023.
The team handles everything from work permit applications to the right to be Caymanian to permanent residency and everything in between, including relocation assistance, registration as a British Overseas Territory Citizen and passport applications.
Should a matter become contentious, HSM’s Senior Associate Alastair David can assist. Alastair’s work has made headlines over the past year including an immigration issue where his client, a domestic violence victim won the right to fight to stay in Cayman and another case where the Court of Appeal declared that the Immigration Act is incompatible with section 9 of the Bill of Rights, which deals with family and private life.
As a full-service law firm, HSM can also assist with ancillary services such as employment, property guidance, litigation and can provide corporate support under HSM Corporate Services Ltd. Clients appreciate that they can handle their legal needs in one place.
The Best of Cayman Islands 2023 is a vote-based contest and nominations are provided by the community.
HSM is thrilled to be featured and thanks the public as well as clients for their votes. This recognition is a testament to HSM’s high-quality immigration support in the Cayman Islands.
