Advocate Damian Evans’ appointment follows that of Advocate Bryan de Verneuil-Smith, who has joined the team as a Managing Associate in Guernsey.

Advocate Evans has seven years experience as a Jersey Advocate, and was most recently at the head of the contentious trusts team of a local law firm.

Partner Nick Williams welcomed his arrival, saying: “Following the promotion of Oliver Passmore to partner and the arrival of managing associate Rebecca McNulty, our team continues to go from strength to strength.

“Damian’s arrival is a very welcome addition to our leading trusts disputes team.”
