A Jersey law firm has expanded its property team in a move it says reflects confidence in the future of the Island’s property sector.
Voisin Law has appointed Advocate Carol Doherty as a senior associate in its Property Department as the firm continues to invest in its property practice.
Advocate Doherty brings more than 20 years of legal experience in Jersey, spanning both residential and commercial property.
Her work has included acquisitions and disposals, commercial leasing, property finance and lending transactions, as well as share transfer and flying freehold structures.
She has previously held senior roles at other Jersey law firms, advising private clients and businesses as well as developers, lenders and major banks.
The appointment comes as Voisin continues to grow its property team under Advocate Emily Paris-Hunter, who was recently appointed to lead the department.
The firm said the expansion represented a “strategic commitment” to specialist property expertise amid an evolving local market.
Advocate Paris-Hunter said: “As the market continues to evolve, clients need advisers who combine deep local knowledge with practical, solutions-focused advice.
“Carol’s appointment strengthens our ability to deliver that and reflects our confidence in the future of the Jersey property sector.”
Advocate Doherty, who is also a Notary Public, will work across residential and commercial property matters and bolster the firm’s notarisation and certification services.
She said the opportunity to join Voisin at a “time of growth” had been particularly compelling.
“I look forward to working with clients across a broad range of property matters and contributing to a firm that is investing in its people, its clients and the island community,” she added.
