Legal 500 ranking ‘highlights excellence’

Hong Kong, 1 April 2022: Colin Cohen has hailed Boase Cohen & Collins’ inclusion in the latest Legal 500 rankings as further proof of the firm’s high standards and commitment to excellence.

BC&C is praised for its services in Private Client (Tax, Trusts, Wealth Management and Contentious Probate) while Colin is highlighted as the key name.

“Our ranking in the Legal 500 is a tribute to the outstanding legal team we have built here and the staff who provide invaluable support. We are proud to be an independent firm, made in Hong Kong, with nearly all our legal professionals raised and educated here, serving the community,” said Colin, BC&C’s Senior Partner since 2004.

“The fact we have some clients who have been with us for decades is testament to the principles we have adopted since Mel Boase and I established the firm more than 36 years ago. It is also worth noting the Legal 500 is respected worldwide for its integrity and credibility. Rankings are purely merit-based and cannot be paid for, unlike various other legal listings. Therefore, we are delighted to be included in the Asia Pacific 2022 Edition.”

The Legal 500 citation states: “Boase Cohen & Collins is well equipped to handle a range of matters related to wills, succession planning, probate, estate administration and family law issues. Colin Cohen is the key name to note.”

Now covering more than 120 jurisdictions, the Legal 500 has been ranking legal professionals and firms for over 33 years and is an acknowledged referral platform for law firms, barrister chambers, legal recruiters, general counsel, in-house teams and suppliers to the legal sector.

40+ years of legal experience is just a click away.
