Bedell Cristin’s Jersey litigation team has added a seasoned local advocate to its roster as it continues to “focus on growth”.
Samantha Hoare, who qualified as a Jersey Advocate in 2012, has joined the team led by partners Robert Gardner, Edward Drummond, Robert Christie and Sonia Shah, which is ranked in the highest tier by both Chambers & Partners and Legal 500.
She moved offshore shortly after completing the Bar Course in England in 2007 and practised with two other leading Jersey law firms before joining Bedell Cristin.
