Dentons Delany amplifies its position as the only truly Pan-Caribbean law firm following the announcement of Chambers Global 2023. The Firm maintained its historical recognitions while entering the department-ranking table for Guyana and securing a coveted spot within the competitive individual lawyer-ranking table in Trinidad and Tobago. 

Common themes related to ‘global reach,’ ‘regional footprint,’ ‘best practice,’ and ‘client-led’ emerged from this year’s objective review of the Firm’s ranked departments and lawyers. In their candid appraisal, Chambers researchers wrote, “Dentons is a high-profile international law firm with an extensive network of offices around the world, including an unrivalled and near-comprehensive coverage of the Caribbean region. The Firm's Caribbean practice provides clients with sophisticated legal representation across the myriad legal environments of the region.”

Dentons Delany continues to be the only firm to hold rankings in two of the three Caribbean-wide spotlight tables, emphasizing the cross-jurisdictional and cross-border fortes of our local talent. Dustin Delany retains his distinctive position in three ranking tables in recognition of his leadership standing in respective fields of law. In 2022, Dustin became the most-ranked lawyer ever by Chambers Global in the Caribbean.
