Law Firm Overview FREE CONSULTATION

Parris Whittaker, Attorney at Law, located in Freeport, Bahamas, is a full-service law firm with over 40 years of experience in commercial transactions and litigation. 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.

Our firm's array of services is broad. As real estate, banking, and litigation experts, we've built legal specialties around our strengths and your needs. We often price our services based on your value, not maximizing our fees.

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 Parris Whittaker for their legal needs.
