Gough Law is celebrating being ranked in the highly prestigious Chambers and Partners UK Guide within the category, Offshore: Dispute Resolution. Gough Law is ranked in the highest category, Band 1, which is usually dominated by larger law firms. This in itself is a credit to the team at Gough Law, a small boutique litigation practice.

Founding director Alan Gough, who is widely acknowledged as the Isle of Man’s Litigator of choice for the most demanding cases, has been ranked individually in the highest category Band 1. Alan has appeared in many leading Isle of Man cases over the past 40 years.

Charles Coleman, shareholder and director of the firm was recognised in Band 2 and is known for his tactical thinking and cross examination of difficult cases, especially in fraud and quasi-fraud cases.

Chambers and Partners UK have been ranking the best lawyers since 1990, and now cover 185 jurisdictions. No other organisation has the strength-in-depth of their editorial and research team when it comes to assessing the world’s business lawyers.

Chambers rank both lawyers and law firms based on the research of 170 full-time editors and researchers employed at their head office in London. They talk to lawyers and clients all year round, conducting in-depth telephone interviews.

Commenting on the ranking within the directory Alan Gough said, “This is a great accolade for our small but talented team. I would like to thank all of my colleagues for their hard work and dedication to their clients.”
