Legal services to fit your needs

At SJW Law, we cover a broad range of legal needs across the Caribbean with our various practice areas.

Acquisitions & Mergers

Acquisitions and mergers can be complex, but we've got the expertise to guide you through. We'll provide strategic advice and support to ensure everything goes smoothly.

Administration of Estates

When someone passes away, distributing their property can be complicated. We help with:

• Applying for Letters of Administration
• Applying for Grant of Probate
• Resealing Grants of Probate

In Grenada, a will is valid if it's written by someone 18 or older, signed in front of two or more witnesses. If there's no will, we handle distribution according to the Intestates Estates Act.

Admiralty law covers the legal side of owning and operating vessels. We help with:

• Registering vessels

• Admiralty litigation

Litigation isn't always the best route. We offer:

These methods use a neutral third party to help resolve disputes outside of court.
