Gerald and Paul join the firm as partners with practices that will focus in the areas of corporate and insurance regulatory law, with an emphasis on the formation and representation of captive insurance companies, risk retention groups and other insurance regulatory matters in the State of Hawai‘i. They both represent clients locally and abroad with general business planning matters, and their captive and insurance regulatory clients include publicly-traded Fortune 500 and Global 500 companies from the U.S. and Japan.
