Hill Dicks to open in Monaco

LIVERPOOL law firm Hill Dickinson is opening an office in Monaco next month.

It will support the growth of the firm’s yacht team and focus on developing shipping-related business.

The yacht team advises owners, insurers, brokers, designers and builders of yachts.

Partner David Reardon will run the Monte Carlo office with a team of three. Further appointments expected in next six months.

Managing partner Peter Jackson said: “Our yacht team is widely regarded as the leader in the marine and superyacht market and, as so much of its work is derived from the principality, it makes sense for it to establish a base there to provide an even better service to its clients and to enhance the firm’s profile in this very important area of our business.”

Hill Dickinson also has offices in Manchester, London, Chester, Sheffield, Piraeus in Greece and Singapore.
