Firm profile:

Cox Hallett Wilkinson is one of the largest law firms in Bermuda. It was formed in January 1998 by the merger of two long-established local law firms and subsequently strengthened its presence on the island by merging with former Ernst & Young-tied firm Hollis & Co. in July 2004. The firm serves a diverse local and international clientele focusing primarily on corporate and commercial, litigation, private client, estate planning, real estate and intellectual property-related matters.

Its affiliated company, Coson Corporate Services Limited, provides corporate administration services to a variety of local and exempted companies carrying on business in, among other things, insurance, reinsurance, mutual funds, investment holdings, international trade, shipping and aviation. State House Trust Company Limited, a licensed trust company regulated by the Bermuda Monetary Authority, also provides trustee services and related private client services.
The firm is the Bermuda member of Meritas, a global network of medium-sized law firms.
