We’re delighted to announce that Stephen Wilson KC, Dominique Gardiner, and Lovelie Luxama are featured in the Chambers & Partners’ 2024 Litigation Global Practice Guide, providing the latest legal information across 70 jurisdictions.
In the guide, we give insights into litigation in the Turks & Caicos Islands (TCI), a self-governing constitutional democracy under the British Crown. The courts of the Turks and Caicos Islands hear cases based primarily on the adversarial model, very similar to that operated in other Caribbean countries and in England and Wales. Proceedings are generally conducted through both written submissions and oral argument, as well as cross-examination of witnesses.
We cover the following topics:
- General information on the legal system in TCI
- Litigation funding
- Initiating a lawsuit
- Pre-trial proceedings
- Discovery
- Injunctive relief
- Trials and hearings
- Settlement
- Damages and judgment
- Appeal
- Costs
- Alternative dispute resolution
- Arbitration
- Outlook
