Advocate James O’Grady has joined BCR Law to extend the firm's non-contentious work offering to corporate and institutional clients.

Advocate O’Grady trained as an English Solicitor at Shoosmiths, before moving to Jersey on qualification in 2005. He was called to the Jersey Bar in October 2011.

Prior to joining BCR Law, Advocate O'Grady was senior in-house legal counsel for an asset services company in Jersey.

Wendy Lambert, Partner in charge of the Corporate and Commercial Practise,  said: “I am delighted that James is joining us. He has an excellent background across a good range of offshore corporate transactions and he will strengthen our highly capable team, expanding the services we can offer due to his experience both working with external clients and on in-house matters.”
