Ince & Co is an international law firm with 85 partners. As well as Dubai, the Ince network includes offices in Hamburg, Hong Kong, Le Havre, London, Paris, Piraeus, Shanghai and Singapore. The firm’s lawyers practise English, French, German, UAE (including Shariah) and Hong Kong law.
Ince & Co’s experience in aviation is worldwide and ranges from purchase and finance (including Islamic Finance), through liability, insurance and subrogation, to reputation, criminal sanctions and public affairs. Its aviation expertise is reflected in its client base: a broad range of airlines, operators, regulators, manufacturers, airports and their trade bodies, insurers, reinsurers, and insurance trade associations. The key to Ince’s approach is its understanding and experience of the technology and the commercial imperatives of the aviation market.
Lawyers in the firm also advise in six other core business areas: Business & Finance; Commercial Disputes; Energy; Insurance & Reinsurance; International Trade and Shipping. Teams regularly use knowledge of one sector to advise clients in another.
With the benefit of over ten years of independent research, Who’s Who Legal used the thousands of nominations it has received from clients and private practice professionals to identify the leading firms in 50 countries and five US states. The winners were formally announced in The International Who’s Who of Business Lawyers 2008, a compendium edition of all the individual Who’s Who Legal publications, which was released in May, covering 29 practice areas and nearly 100 countries.
Editor in chief Callum Campbell said, “In a highly competitive field, receiving the Who’s Who Legal Shipping & Maritime Law Firm of the Year Award is an outstanding achievement. This is the first time we have recognised a firm in this field, and the consistently positive feedback Ince & Co received reflects its exceptional individual and collective talent. We have no hesitation in declaring Ince & Co the leading firm for Shipping & Maritime expertise."
Partners from the firm received sufficient nominations from their clients and peers to be listed nine times across seven countries in the Shipping & Maritime chapter of the publication. The firm had more practitioners in this section than any other firm, and James Wilson features among the most highly regarded individuals in the research overall.
Who’s Who Legal lists only the leading practitioners in each field, based exclusively on the findings of an independent six-month research process. The awards are based on a number of factors, including the feedback received in the ongoing research process, past performance in the research and the overall aggregate number of weighted votes cast in their favour.
In addition to identifying the overall leading firm in 50 countries and five US states, the awards also recognise the leading firm and individual in each practice area. The compendium edition is distributed free of charge to thousands of corporate counsel and private practice lawyers from around the world. The information is also available on whoswholegal.com and is updated daily.
This year, Who’s Who Legal was named the Strategic Research Partner of the ABA Section of International Law in addition to its position as Official Research Partner of the International Bar Association. In 2006, Who’s Who Legal’s parent company Law Business Research was recognised by The Queen’s Award for Enterprise in the area of international trade. These awards are the most prestigious a British company can receive.
