Scarborough, Tobago
Law Firm in Tobago
Martin George & Company has been serving clients in Tobago from its Scarborough office at Bacolet Park. The firm's founding partner, Martin George, is a Tobagonian — and the firm's ties to the island go beyond a branch office. We understand Tobago's legal landscape, its courts, its community, and the specific challenges that clients here face.

Tobago legal services
Full legal representation on the sister isle
The Scarborough office handles the full range of matters the firm covers — not a limited subset. Tobago clients receive the same depth of service as those attending the Port of Spain office.
Why Local Representation Matters in Tobago
Legal matters in Tobago are subject to the same laws as Trinidad — but the practical realities of litigation, property transactions, and court appearances on the island are different. The Tobago court system operates under the Tobago Magistrates' Court and the High Court sitting circuit. Timelines, registry procedures, and local administrative processes require an attorney who is physically present and familiar with how things work here.
Martin George & Company's Scarborough team handles file management, court appearances, and client meetings locally. For clients based in the UK, Canada, or the US with Tobago property or family matters, the firm coordinates remotely so that no in-person travel is required on your part.
Martin George: A Tobagonian Attorney
Martin George is a Tobagonian. He has served as Chairman of the Tobago Business Chamber and has been a consistent public voice on matters affecting the island — its governance, its security, its economy, and its people. That civic engagement reflects a genuine connection to Tobago that informs how the firm approaches matters for Tobago-based clients.
When you retain Martin George & Company for a Tobago matter, you are not engaging a Port of Spain firm with a satellite office. You are engaging a firm whose principal is from Tobago, whose Scarborough team knows the island, and whose entire practice has been built with Tobago clients in mind.
