ISOLAS joined Gibraltar’s judiciary and legal profession at the Supreme Court for the Opening of the Legal Year, an occasion to reflect on the past year and the priorities ahead.

Our Partner and Chair of the Gibraltar Law Council, Emma Azopardi Lejeune, addressed the court on behalf of the profession and formally seconded the motion to open the new legal year. Emma highlighted significant developments, including Gibraltar’s removal from the grey list and progress on the Gibraltar–EU treaty.

Emma said: “The Opening of the Legal Year is an opportunity to reflect on what Gibraltar’s legal profession has achieved and the challenges ahead. The Law Council will continue to support and represent the profession as it responds to those changes.”

ISOLAS Commercial Litigation Partner James Montado added: “The Chief Justice reflected on how the Court needs to adapt as the work before it becomes increasingly complex and specialised. The move towards digitisation as a way of improving the administration of justice was of particular interest to us and we very much look forward to seeing how this develops.”
