The firm

Founded in 2012, FFP is an independently owned firm based in the Cayman Islands and British Virgin Islands with professionals drawn from a range of fields in the insolvency, fiduciary, forensic, trust, fund administration and corporate services sectors.

FFP has earned a reputation internationally for dealing with difficult, peculiar and often fast moving and controversial situations. Our mandates usually involve restructuring, litigation and regulatory issues.

We are adept at rapidly taking control of intricate situations and structures. We control companies, partnerships and trusts in a wide range of jurisdictions throughout the Caribbean, US, most major European jurisdictions, South America, Africa, the Middle East and Asia.

Our cases involve significant application of experience and judgment. We are known for being decisive and proactive. We do not stand on ceremony or get lost in unnecessary bureaucracy and pride ourselves on being straightforward people to deal with. We have been recommended in several market leading publications for our work in insolvency, asset recovery, restructuring and trust disputes. Most of our work comes from word of mouth recommendations, litigation counsel and existing clients.

Rarely are we engaged on a matter in a one-dimensional approach. What distinguishes us from our competitors is that we will act in multiple capacities across a variety of entities in a range of jurisdictions within the same engagement.
