Tim Garcia is a Partner of Hassans International Law Firm Limited (since 2014) and leads our team specialising in international cross-border corporate, commercial and tax work. His clients are primarily ‘blue-chip’ multinationals, major private equity houses, and substantial family offices, who rely on him as a considered, innovative and practical advisor, as well as trusted non-executive director for many of their entities.  The Gibraltar Financial Services Commission (as regulator) have also recently admitted him as a licensed insolvency practitioner with the ability to act as liquidator for members’ voluntary, solvent liquidations (with Tim having also afforded extensive legal advisory assistance in the conduct of ~ 100 voluntary liquidations of Gibcos, many with cross-border elements).

His expertise (which also covers all Gibraltar tax aspects as well as its interplay with a large variety of jurisdictions with which Gibraltar companies and individuals may interact) includes corporate substance and governance, structuring, servicing and divestment of investments, employee stock options, re-domiciliations, relocations (and establishment by way of branch or otherwise) of businesses and individuals to Gibraltar (in both the corporate and private client space), cross-border mergers, M&A, financing and re-structuring transactions (including in Chapter 11 scenarios), liquidations and broader insolvency aspects, limited partnerships, as well as a whole range of general commercial transactions.
