Ogier has acted as legal adviser to the Sandpiper Group, a long-standing client of the firm, on the acquisition of the Liberty Wharf retail complex in St Helier, which completed last month.
The Ogier team, led by Partner Jonathan Hughes and Managing Associate Katharine Marshall, advised on the Jersey property law aspects of the multimillion-pound purchase, supported by Senior Associate Sarah Parish and Associate Laura Shirreffs.
Partner Matthew Shaxson and his team, including Senior Associate Oliver Richardson and Associate Chloe Watson-Hill, assisted Sandpiper on the corporate law elements of the deal.
The purchase marks a key acquisition for the Channel Islands retail group, which in the past six months has acquired Apple product reseller iQ and has also introduced the Morrisons supermarket brand to Jersey.
