Campbells’ Blockchain & FinTech practice, led by partner Richard Spencer, is widely recognised as holding a leading position in the market. 

For over a decade, we have advised many high-profile and innovative international businesses in this space, including crypto exchanges, token issuers and investment funds. 

In a fast-moving regulatory environment, Chambers & Partners notes that we are “exceptionally strong on Cayman regulations and very sensitive to the structuring needs of international clients”. We are also actively involved in the development of Blockchain & FinTech legislation, with positions on each of the relevant legislative committees. This direct involvement in shaping the regulatory landscape ensures our clients receive advice that is both forward-looking and grounded in a deep understanding of legislative intent. 

Having embraced this practice area from the very beginning, our experts have a unique depth of experience and knowledge of appropriate structures specific to Blockchain and FinTech businesses, including foundation company and trust structures.  

We also have extensive experience advising and representing clients in contentious and insolvency-related Blockchain and FinTech matters. A number of lawyers in our highly regarded Litigation and Insolvency team are at the forefront of this rapidly developing practice area, having advised and acted for clients in relation to numerous novel legal issues, including fraud and asset recovery involving digital assets, trading platform insolvencies and cross-border enforcement proceedings.
