Back to About the firm

Finbar F. Dempsey & Company is committed to hiring and retaining the best and brightest attorneys and paralegals. 

While the firm gives preference to Turks & Caicos Islanders in employment we are always interested to hear from attorneys and paralegals in other jurisdictions with particular areas of specialization and ability who would be interested in working in the Caribbean.

In order to be admitted to practice as an attorney at law in the Turks & Caicos Islands an individual must have qualified in a Commonwealth jurisdiction (i.e. England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Canada, etc.).   Non Turks & Caicos Islanders are required to have a minimum of 5 years post-qualification experience outside the islands prior to admission. 

Notwithstanding, Finbar F. Dempsey & Company will consider newly qualified solicitors with initiative and creativity for positions as paralegals with the firm.

Qualities Sought:

The firm provides services in sophisticated, innovative and changeable areas of the law.   As a result, a  significant portion of work undertaken involves novel, atypical transactions, structuring and implementation which makes working with the firm both challenging and satisfying.  There is tremendous variety in virtually every area of our practice, and innovation rather than imitation is often key. 

The diversity of clients and transactions demand highly developed communication,  planning and negotiating abilities of our attorneys and paralegals.  Involvement with legal systems and clients from around the world, make working at Finbar F. Dempsey & Company both interesting and challenging and provides associates and paralegals with exceptional opportunities for professional growth and advancement. 

Accordingly, we are interested in hearing from lawyers and paralegals who are international in outlook and who possess the following qualities:

1. maturity in dealing with people

2. the ability to take judgments on matters for which there may be no technical or authoritative answer 

3. experience in drafting and tailoring commercial agreements

4. the ability to take on a high degree of responsibility

5. computer literacy - Microsoft Word, word processing generally, email, etc.
