Digital-asset and blockchain counsel, cross-border corporate structuring and high-value commercial litigation — built on more than twenty-five years at the offshore financial bar.
Chancery Lane Chambers advises on the complex, cross-border corporate and commercial matters that define modern offshore practice — from the formation and administration of international structures to high-value litigation in the Eastern Caribbean and before the Privy Council.
The Chambers is led by Ravi A. Bahadursingh — LLB (Hons), LLM, LEC, TEP — a barrister with more than twenty-five years of post-qualification experience and a strong emphasis on corporate and commercial law. He holds an LLB (Hons) from Trinity College Dublin and an LLM in International Economic Law from the University of Warwick, and has been actively engaged in cross-border litigation and advisory work spanning corporate, commercial, financial and regulatory matters.
