Ogier adds new partner

Friday 11 June 2021

Ogier has appointed a BVI Banking and Finance specialist to Partner in Jersey.

Christian Burns-Di Lauro, who joined the firm in 2014, has worked in Ogier's BVI, Cayman and Jersey offices and is currently the only specialist BVI Banking and Finance partner based in the Channel Islands.

"Christian becomes the second full time BVI partner practising in the non-contentious areas of the wider BVI Europe team at Ogier, supplementing our other BVI Europe partners who split their practices between BVI law and the law of their home jurisdiction,” Simon Schilder, who heads Ogier's BVI in Europe team, commented.

“I am very pleased that Christian's promotion recognises the development and growth of our BVI legal practice in Europe and the importance of banking and finance work within this practice." 

There are now 80 partners at Ogier in total.
