Appleby Hunter Bailhache has officially changed its name to Appleby.
When Appleby Spurling Hunter combined with Jersey-based Bailhache Labesse last year, the firm announced that they would use the combined name of Appleby Hunter Bailhache until 31 March 2007. Appleby will be now become the global brand identity of the firm.
“We are very proud of our heritage and the energy and skill of those who created and developed the firms that ultimately became part of the global Appleby organization,” said Peter Bubenzer, global managing partner. “However, as the group expands and operates in new markets, the Appleby name will become increasingly significant as the brand identity by which we express the breadth and quality of our legal, fiduciary and administrative services worldwide.”
