Overview

Overview

I am a partner in our BVI office and the Practice Leader of the BVI finance, corporate and funds team.

I have particular experience advising on corporate and finance transactions in the real estate, financial services, energy and technology sectors, including mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, debt and equity fundraising, public listings, security arrangements, corporate restructurings and corporate and commercial aspects of shareholder and contractual disputes.

My clients include leading international law firms and accountancy firms, financial institutions, multi-national businesses, funds and their managers, and high net worth individuals.

Prior to joining Mourant, I worked for two other offshore law firms in the BVI, as well as Pinsent Masons in London.
