Carey Olsen names partner in Hong Kong to provide Bermuda legal advice
Carey Olsen has named a new partner in Hong Kong to provide on-the-ground Bermuda legal advice to Asia clients.
Henry Tucker joined Carey Olsen Bermuda in 2017 before relocating to the firm's Hong Kong office in 2019. His practice covers all aspects of offshore commercial and trust litigation with a specific focus on arbitration, enforcement and insolvency issues, including out of court administrative and regulatory disputes.
He also provides non-contentious advice on unique transaction structures, internal regulatory compliance measures and matters involving cross-border enforcement and regulatory risk.
He was previously a barrister and attorney at HJ Tucker & Co for just over a year, and has also worked at Harneys and Appleby in Bermuda.
Meanwhile, Carey Olsen has also named Elizabeth Killeen as a partner in the British Virgin Islands and Denis Olarou as a partner in the Cayman Islands.
Killeen has been with Carey Olsen since 2014 and has a broad range of experience in corporate, commercial and financial transactions. She specialises in BVI law and advises on cross-border debt and equity financing, joint venture arrangements, IPOs, mergers and acquisitions, aircraft and other asset financing, continuations in and out of the BVI, corporate governance, corporate reorganisations, directors' duties and voluntary liquidations.
Olarou specialises in helping clients resolve complex high-value multi-jurisdictional disputes. His broad practice spans all aspects of insolvency litigation, fraud litigation, shareholder and partnership disputes, as well as general contract and tort claims, including applications for urgent injunctive relief.
The three promotions bring the total number of partners across the Carey Olsen group to 62.
Carey Olsen group managing partner Alex Ohlsson said: "Elizabeth, Denis and Henry have all made significant contributions to the firm and I am delighted to welcome them to the partnership. They become partners at a very exciting time as we continue to expand our offering, particularly in the Caribbean and in Asia where they are based."
