Jersey Law

Jersey law refers to the legal system governing the Isle of Jersey, a Crown Dependency. It is based on a mix of statutes, common law, and customary law, and is independent of the United Kingdom’s legal system. Jersey law covers areas such as property, contracts, criminal justice, and finance, often adapting to modern needs while respecting traditional legal principles. Its courts uphold legal rights and ensure justice within the jurisdiction. Importantly, Jersey law also influences international finance and business, making it a significant legal jurisdiction for banking, trust, and offshore services.
