About the Firm
George Town's leading independent practice.
We are Experienced Advisors & Litigators

We’ve designed our practice to accommodate both non-Bahamas businesses that need sharp local expertise and local/regional businesses that want a trusted hand and 24/7 attention.


That’s why our array of services is broad. As litigation and maritime experts, we’ve built legal specialties around our strengths and your needs. What’s more, we often price our services based on your value – not maximizing our fees.


Why You Need the Top Lawyers in ParrisWhittaker


Doing business in the Bahamas isn’t as easy as you might think. It’s governed by arcane laws, complex systems and local politics that can prove baffling – and unproductive – to outsiders. That’s why so many global and regional businesses look to ParrisWhittaker for their legal and advisory needs.


ParrisWhittaker is a local law firm based in the Bahamas with affiliate offices in the Jamaica and the British Virgin Islands. With over 70 years of experience and an outstanding track record, the firm operates on a trifold philosophy: working hard, working smart, and working for the win.
