Local law firm Dickinson Cruickshank has risen in the rankings of the Legal 500, moving onto the first tier in Commercial Law and Pensions and Insurance work.

The latest promotion means DC is the only Manx law firm to have top tier ranking in every discipline, the others being Dispute Resolution, Private Client, Trusts and Tax and Commercial Property.

Senior Partner Paul Morris says everybody at the firm is thrilled to have the new status, which is recognition for all the hard work and effort DC staff have put in over the last five years.

He says it also reinforces the message that the Isle of Man is a jurisdiction which is recognised for providing high quality services.
